BJP leader Kirit Somaiya who was allegedly seen in a compromising position in viral video that surfaced on the internet, demanded a thorough investigation in the matter clarifying that he is innocent in the case. In a letter penned to the Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis dated July 17, Somaiya urged Fadnavis, who also holds the Home Ministry, to launch a thorough probe into the matter over the authenticity of the viral video. Somaiya took it to his official Twitter handle and posted a picture of the letter. He stated that he never abused any woman and requested Fadnavis to launch a probe in the matter. Mumbai Congress Chief Prof. Varsha Gaikwad took it to her Twitter and expressed her dissatisfaction over the BJP leader's alleged viral video. Taking a dig at Somaiya on being exposed publically, she also slammed the saffron party over their 'Beti Bachao Beti Padhao' initiative. Such incidents prove that the slogan is 'Betiyon Ko Bhajpa Netaon Se Bachao,' said Gaikwad in a tweet. In a stunning and controversial development, a video allegedly featuring Kirit Somaiya surfaced online, sending shockwaves throughout the political landscape on Monday evening. The video's emergence has triggered intense speculation and widespread discussions, raising questions about privacy invasion and political conspiracy.
