The Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP) workers forced a 73-year-old Congress leader to wear a saree in full public view in Thane's Dombivali on Tuesday, September 23, for sharing a morphed social media post featuring Prime Minister Narendra Modi. On Monday, senior Congress leader Prakash alias 'Mama' Pagare had shared a morphed image of PM Modi in a red saree. Angered, BJP workers retaliated by making him wear a saree. A video of the incident has gone viral on social media. Responding to the incident, Pagare told ANI, "I had forwarded an existing post on Facebook. Later, I received a call from BJP leader Sandeep Mali while I was in the hospital. As I was coming out of the hospital, Sandeep Mali, along with a group of people, grabbed me and started asking me about a post I had forwarded on Facebook and threatened me. I told them what they were doing was wrong. A case should be filed against them (BJP workers). I will take legal action against them, invoking the Atrocities Act." New Mumbai BJP President: MLA Ameet Satam Appointed As Party's City Unit Chief Ahead of Upcoming BMC Elections.
