Bollywood actor Swara Bhasker yesterday recorded her statement at the Patiala House Court in New Delhi, in a case where she has alleged that a YouTube influencer has made objectionable comments against her on the micro-blogging site Twitter.<\/p>\n
Bhasker, who has always been the subject of heavy trolling on various social media platforms, had on Sunday, filed a complaint at the Vasant Kunj police station as some messages doing the rounds on social media, she said, were “intended to outrage her modesty.”<\/p>\n
A police official informed that they have registered an FIR, based on her complaint, under sections 354 D and 509 of the Indian Penal Code and section 67 of the IT act. Sources said that the police have also initiated an investigation into the case.<\/p>\n
Bhasker, 33, has always been the centre of attraction of all the trolls on social media platforms because of her open views on several political issues.<\/p>\n
While speaking to a TV channel on Sunday, she said that this culture of trolling has become a menace these days.<\/p>\n
Responding to a question as to why only she is being targeted by a certain section of trolls, Bhasker said that the prime reason is she engages with most of the people on social media. “I don’t keep quiet, I respond,” she said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
