Mallika Sarabhai unhappy with PM

Ahmedabad, January 22

Danseuse Mallika Sarabhai today hit out at Prime Minister Narendra Modi for failing to pay tributes to her mother Mrinalini on her death, saying this showed his “hate” mentality.

The classical dancer-turned-activist, who had fought 2009 LS elections against veteran BJP leader LK Advani from Gandhinagar as an Independent but lost, vented her ire on Modi.

“My dear Prime Minister. You hate my politics and I hate yours. That has nothing to do with what Mrinalini Sarabhai did to promote the culture of this country, to the world over 60 years,” Mallika wrote on her Facebook post.

"She blazed a trailer for our culture in the world. That her death sees no word from you shows your mentality. How ever much you hate me, as our Prime Minister it behove you to recognise her contribution. You have not. Shame on you." she said in the post. — PTI
