Shiv Sena legislator Pratap Sarnaik
Shiv Sena legislator Pratap Sarnaik submitted a letter on Monday to the state legislature secretariat seeking admission of his breach of privilege notice against print and electronic media outlets for defaming him by publishing stories based on a tweet of actor Kangana Ranaut.
Sarnaik, in his letter, has requested the Principal Secretary of the Maharashtra Legislative Assembly to forward the notice to the Privilege Committee of the Assembly to initiate an inquiry on it.
“Some print and electronic media outlets and some people, motivated by political hatred, on social media ran news about recovering a Pakistani credit card from my residence during the searches conducted by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) that led to the defamation of his family,” stated the Sena legislator.
