Kangana Ranaut Twitter Account

While hearing a writ petition filed by an Advocate seeking suspension of actor Kangana Ranaut's twitter handle for allegedly spreading communal hatred on Thursday,17th December, 2020 the Bombay High Court asked the petitioner whether he was personally affected by the tweets.

 A division bench of Justice SS Shinde and Justice MS Karnik adjourned the hearing in the plea filed by Advocate Ali Kaashif Khan Deshmukh earlier this month praying for getting Kangana's twitter account permanently suspended for allegedly spreading continuous hatred, disharmony in the country and attempting to divide the country with her extremist/derogatory tweets and promoting crime in the country, till Monday, December 21. 

Advocate Ali has previously filed two criminal complaints against the actor, one of them also arraigns Kangana's sister Rangoli Chandel as an accused.
