  • Mallika Sherawat Urges Jats For Peace And Non-Violence
Amid the ongoing Jat agitation in Haryana, actress Mallika Sherawat has appealed to the Jat community to maintain peace.

The "Murder" actress, who comes from a small village in Hisar district of Haryana , took to Twitter to make her appeal.
