Kaali Poster Controversy: Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan slammed TMC’s Mahua Moitra for 'insulting' Goddess Kali and said she cannot make similar comments about the Gods of other religions.
"Freedom of speech is only for insulting Hindu Goddesses. From MF Hussain to Owaisi to now Moitra, all have selectively targeted the Hindu religion because they know that Hindus are tolerant,” Malviya said.
“Moitra, while speaking at an India Today Conclave East session, called the Hindu deity a ‘meat-eating, alcohol-accepting goddess’. But she can't say similar things about the Gods of other religions," said Malviya.
Malviya took to Twitter and wrote, “Mamata Banerjee’s TMC is full of Hindu-hating bigots but this insult of Maa Kaali, revered across West Bengal, by one of her party MP, has offended every devotee.”
Speaking at the India Today Conclave East 2022 on Tuesday, Mahua Moitra reacted to a controversy over a movie poster showing Goddess Kaali smoking a cigarette.
The Kaali Poster controversy erupted after filmmaker Leena Manimekalai shared the poster of the film on social media. The poster depicts a woman dressed in the costume of Goddess Kaali. She is seen smoking a cigarette in the photo. Along with her usual accoutrements of trishul (trident), and sickle, the actor playing the goddess is shown wielding the LGBTQ+ community's pride flag.
