The case of marital discord between Biju Janata Dal whip deputy boss in Lok Sabha Anubhav Mohanty and his actress wife Varsha Pariyadarshini took another turn on Tuesday and the latter filed a written complaint with police that two people entered his room on Monday and took pictures.
Priyadarshini, in her complaint to the Purighat police station in Cuttack, alleged that two people, working at Mohanty’s residence at Nandi Sahi in Cuttack, where she is staying now, entered her room on Monday night while she was eating, they clicked in photographs and recorded videos.
Rashmiranjan Sahoo, a police station inspector, said the actress had denounced the threat to her life and sought police protection. “A police officer has been assigned to protect her at her father-in-law’s house,” Sahoo said. On Monday, police rushed to Mohanty’s home after his wife sought protection by calling the emergency helpline.
Last month, Priyadarshini had filed a domestic violence case against Mohanty and her family under sections 12, 17, 18, 19, 20, 22, 23 of the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act of 2005 in a Cuttack court citing multiple domestic violence cases. mental and physical torture and demanded compensation of 15 million rupees for the loss of her income due to the loss of films, as well as a monthly amount of 70,000 rupees for the rent and maintenance of the house. She accused her husband of being an alcoholic and having multiple affairs with his co-stars.
Mohanty and Priyadarshini tied the knot in a mass ceremony in Bhubaneswar in 2014 after years of dating. Mohanty, a superstar of the Odia film industry, was then a deputy for Rajya Sabha.
The case, which was scheduled for the first hearing on September 7, was postponed until October 12, as the Cuttack district protection officer had not recorded his statement. On Monday, the Cuttack District Protection Officer recorded his statement.
However, Anubhav Mohanty, a Kendrapara MP, said that if his wife feels that she is being harassed, her sister and mother should take her away from their home. “On what basis, does she still live in my house?” asked Mohanty, who filed for divorce in family court at the Patiala House court in Delhi in July. “It is my personal matter but the truth will prevail. The issue should not be sensational for TRP, “he added.
Mohanty in his divorce claim has alleged that his wife was mentally torturing him and showed no interest in consummating the marriage.
Priyadarshini in a Facebook and Twitter post on Monday night said she will soon break her silence on the matter. “The truth cannot be defeated, it will be proven soon. The court will take its own action. With Lord Jagannath’s blessings and everyone’s blessings, I will break the silence, no one has the right to falsely accuse anyone. I love you Odisha, I love you all. Jay Jagannath, ”he wrote in capital letters.
Meanwhile, pressure appears to be mounting on Prime Minister Naveen Patnaik to take action against Mohanty with BJP Mahila Morcha’s state unit demanding Mohanty’s resignation from the deputy post on moral grounds, while Congress accused the actor of presenting False information about your educational qualification on your 2014 election affidavit.
Congressional spokesman Nishikanta Mishra alleged that Mohanty had submitted a false affidavit regarding his educational qualification while submitting his nomination for the 2014 Rajya Sabha polls.
“How did Mohanty get admission to Kandarpur College when he failed the +2 exam at Christ College? He has submitted a false affidavit about his educational qualifications during the 2014 Rajya Sabha elections. The state government had previously protected him because he belongs to the ruling party and they are still trying to protect the actor-turned-politician, ”Mishra alleged.
The BJP also demanded immediate action against Mohanty.
“Anubhav’s wife, Varsha, has filed a domestic violence case against him. This indicates how unsafe women are in the state. We strongly condemn the incident. We will take to the streets if immediate action is not taken against the BJD deputy, ”said BJP leader Mahila Morcha, Smruti Pattnaik.
