Woman in Uttar Pradesh Faces Trouble After Praising Modi and Yogi Adityanath
A woman named Mariam from Bahraich, Uttar Pradesh, has lodged a police complaint against her husband. She alleges that he issued her ‘triple talaq’ after she praised Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, as well as the recent development work in Ayodhya city.
Mariam also claimed that her in-laws beat her and sent her to her parent’s home after she praised the BJP-led Centre. She said, “I am from a village and when I saw the city, I liked it and I praised Yogi ji and Modi ji. My in-laws did not like it and they beat me and sent me to my parent’s house.”
She further added, “Later I was given triple talaq. They had a lot of demand for dowry, our family gave everything but could not fulfil his demand. I praised Yogi for the safety of girls and he has done everything for girls and my husband did not like it.”
Bahraich Superintendent of Police Vrinda Shukla stated that a case has been registered based on Mariam’s complaint. “She is a resident of Bahraich of Jarwal Road police station area and was married in Ayodhya. She has given a complaint that, when she was touring the district of Ayodhya with her family, she praised the recent development work, the Prime Minister and the Chief Minister.”
SP Shukla added, “Enraged by this, her husband and other in-laws harassed her. Taking immediate cognisance of this complaint, a case has been registered under the relevant acts and a team has been dispatched to arrest her husband and others whose names had come up.”
