Celina Jaitly thanked the Indian government for their prompt action in THIS case

A few days ago, Celina Jaitly’s name was dragged into an allegation by a Pakistani journalist through social media, in which he had claimed that the actress had sexual relations with both (late) Feroz Khan as well as his son Fardeen Khan. Being the strong woman that she is, she did not take things lying down and chose to escalate the matter to the concerned authorities.

In a latest post on social media, Celina Jaitly wrote a long post in which she thanked the Government of India. The actress wrote, “A few months ago, a self-proclaimed Hindi film critic and journalist from Pakistan named Umair Sandu took to Twitter to make viral untrue horrific claims about me which included bizarre allegations like my relations with both my mentor Feroz Khan and his son Fardeen, in addition he made claims targeting me and my family’s safety and security even in Austria. My response to his harassment and fake claims from Pakistan went viral and garnered support from millions of Twitterati including Pakistani nationals who were appalled at his behaviour.”

She further wrote that the perpetrator used to change his location on social media consistently but was hiding in Pakistan, as a result there of legal recourse was not possible for her and that he continued to assault her character and modesty from across the border. And, that’s why she took the matter to the National Commission Of Women in India, who took cognizance of her complaint. Post that, she wrote a letter addressed to the Joint Secretary (PAI Division), Ministry of External Affairs for initiating necessary action in the matter. This resulted in the Commission receiving a positive response. The Ministry, then, viewed the incident with utmost seriousness and raised the matter with Pakistan High Commission in New Delhi wherein they sought an immediate investigation and action of the incident.

The actress further added, “For me it was not just a fight for the open assault on my character but also an assault on my integrity, my motherhood, my family and above all my God father and my beloved mentor Mr Feroz khan who is no longer in this world here to defend himself. He was my mentor, my friend my guide and I am eternally grateful for the love, respect and career he gave me. I am an Indian army war hero’s daughter and I was going to fight it till my last breath even if it meant going to Pakistan to teach this person a lesson.

She thanked the National commission of women by saying that she was very grateful to the National commission of women and Khushbu Sundar for her understanding and support and wonderful work with women’s issue and Rekha Sharma (Chairperson-National Commission Of Women in India). She also thanked the Ministry of External Affairs and the Indian government because they upheld the pride of every Indian woman by initiating this action.

The actress concluded her post by saying, “I feel proud to be an Indian woman today. Four generations of my family including my father gave their blood to our nation and today when they are no longer in this world I feel glad to be treated as a daughter of my nation where in the Government is my protector and guardian. Thank you to all my friends, Indian army colleagues of my late father, amazing twitterati, the Indian media, press who showed unwavering support in my ordeal. Proud to be an Indian woman. Jai Hind! #celinajaitly”.
