Indian cricketer Hardik Pandya puts himself in trouble with a tweet on Dr. Bhim Rao Ambedkar. A special court on Wednesday ordered the police to register a case against Pandya. There is a petition filed by DR Meghwal against cricketer. Meghwal is an advocate and claimed to be a member of Rashtriya Bhim Sena in Rajasthan’s Jalore district.
He claimed that Pandya’s tweet insulted Dr. Ambedkar, the architect of the constitution and his efforts for the country. Pandya’s comments also hurt the sentiments of the people.
It was a tweet from December 26 in which Hardik Pandya had tweeted, “Which Ambedkar ??? The one who drafted a cross law and constitution or the one who spread the disease called reservation in the country.”
Meghwal’s comment on Pandya
“I learnt about Pandya’s comment through social media in January. It appeared quite derogatory for a figure like Ambedkar and was an attempt to spread hatred and create division in the society”.
Although this tweet is no longer available on the timeline of the cricketer still the matter is to be investigated. Hardik Pandya is 24-year-old cricketer. In his two-year long international career, he has played six Tests, 38 ODIs and 30 T20Is. He is an all-rounder in the Indian cricket team. In recently held auctions for IPL, he has been retained by Mumbai Indians.
