Padmavati row: NCW to urge Haryana Police to haul up BJP media coordinator

New Delhi: The National Commission for Women (NCW) on Sunday said it will urge the Haryana Police to take action against state Bharatiya Janata Party's (BJP) Chief Media Coordinator Suraj Pal Amu.

The tweet posted by NCW stated, "@NCWIndia strongly condemn this statement and will write to @gurgaonpolice to take action against Ammu."

The BJP media coordinator also praised the Meerut youth for announcing Rs 5 crore bounty for beheading Deepika and Bhansali.

Amu has also exhorted Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh to speak up against the release of the film.

Meanwhile, the makers of the upcoming movie have voluntarily postponed its release date, in the face of absence of requisite clearances. The new release date is yet to be announced.
