At a time when Mumbai Police has booked Sukhvider Kaur alias Radhe Maa in a dowry case, BJP MLA from Anjar wrote to the minister of state for home of Gujarat seeking action against the self-proclaimed godwoman in connection with a mass suicide case in Kutch last year.
Ahir, who is also parliamentary secretary for Kutch district, in his letter to MoS for home Rajnikant Patel on Wednesday said that the suicide en mass by seven members of a single family in Ningal village of Anjar taluka had affected public sentiment in his constituency.
He further wrote that he informed home department and director general of police (DGP) but whereabouts of Radhe Maa were not known at that time and therefore action could not be taken against her.
“But presently, a number of complaints have been filed against Radhe Maa and Mumbai police are investigating them. A complaint has been submitted to Mumbai police commissioner in respect with the above mentioned case (of mass suicide). It is my recommendation to you to ensure that the Ahir family of Ningal get justice and that action is taken against Radhe Maa who is promoting blind faith in the garb of religion,” Ahir wrote in his letter.
