Mayawati Backs 'Udta Punjab'

Darpan News Desk IANS, 09 Jun, 2016 01:05 PM
    BSP leader Mayawati on Thursday extended support to Bollywood film "Udta Punjab" and said it only reflected the reality of Punjab.
     
    The censors have called for major cuts in the movie, including all references to Punjab. The film deals with the drug menace in the state.
     
    The former Uttar Pradesh chief minister also slammed the Akhilesh Yadav government for the Mathura violence which left 29 persons, including two policemen, dead last week. 
     
    She blamed the Samajwadi Party and the Bharatiya Janata Party for the incident.
     
    Mayawati said if her party took power in the state, she will ensure that all land grabbers were jailed.
