Madhya Pradesh Home Minister Narottam Mishra on Saturday termed actors Shabana Azmi and Naseeruddin Shah, and lyricist Javed Akhtar “members of tukde-tukde gang’s sleeper cell”.
Mishra accused them of not condemning the murder of a tailor in Rajasthan’s Udaipur and the setting of a woman ablaze in Jharkhand recently and said this reflects their ”cheap mentality”.
“This reflects their ”cheap mentality”. How can they be called decent or secular? It is a matter of thought. They all are exposed,” he said.
”Actually, people like Shabana Azmi, Javed Akhtar and Naseeruddin Shah among others are all members of the Tukde Tukde gang’s sleeper cell. Tell me whether she had said anything on the murder of Kanhaiya Lal in Udaipur, no she didn’t,” Mishra told reporters on Friday.
“I had declared in Parliament that I was a member of the tukde-tukde gang,” the Congress MP said in a tweet. He added that Narottam Mishra should become the Union home minister since he has information which even the ministry of home affairs did not have.
“I had also pointed out that in the answer to a question, the MHA said that the government had “no information” on the tukde-tukde gang! If the Home Minister of MP has more information than the Union Home Minister, he should be appointed as the Union Home Minister!” Chidambaram added.
