Mumbai: Controversy continues in Maharashtra over Hanuman Chalisa Chalisa. MP Navneet Rana and her MLA husband Ravi Rana, who made a ruckus to recite Hanuman Chalisa outside Matoshree, the house of Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray, were sent to 14-day judicial custody by a Bandra court on Sunday. At the same time, on April 29, his bail application will be heard. That is, now both the husband and wife will have to stay in jail.
Mumbai Police had sought police custody for him, which was rejected by the court. A case has also been registered against MP Navneet Rana and MLA Ravi Rana under Section 353 of the IPC. He has been accused of interfering in government business. On the other hand, Rizwan Merchant, lawyer of Navneet Rana and Ravi Rana, told the media that Navneet Rana and her husband Ravi Rana were arrested by the police after the FIR was registered at Khar police station on the complaint of Navneet and Ravi Rana against the other side. A second FIR has been registered against him under section 353 of the IPC. Rizwan Merchant said that it stands on a very weak foundation case. There is no point in this.
Navneet Rana and her husband Ravi Rana announced to recite Hanuman Chalisa outside Uddhav Thackeray’s house. After this announcement, Shiv Sena workers got enraged and started gathering outside his house. They created a ruckus outside the Rane couple’s house throughout the day. Shiv Sainiks accused the Rane couple of hurting religious sentiments. Even Shiv Sena workers pelted stones at Kirit Somaiya’s car when he reached Khar police station to meet Rana couple late on Saturday night.
