Hyderabad: A case has been registered against BJP Lok Sabha candidate from Hyderabad Madhavi Latha for allegedly offending the religious sentiments of a particular community during Sri Ramnavami Shobha Yatra held on Wednesday.

The case was registered on a complaint by one Mohd Irfan of First Lancer, who in his complaint alleged that Madhavi Latha had aimed an imaginary arrow at a mosque during Sri Ramnavami Shobha Yatra.

A video of the act of the BJP candidate from Hyderabad went viral on social media platforms, following which there were demands to take legal action against her.
