Celina Jaitly Expresses Gratitude To MEA For Initiating Action Against Pakistani Journalist For Demeaning Her

A few months ago, a self-proclaimed Pakistani writer and Hindi cinema critic by the name of Umair Sandhu took to Twitter to spread harrowing but unfounded allegations about Celina Jaitly.

New Delhi: A few months ago, a self-proclaimed Pakistani writer and Hindi cinema critic by the name of Umair Sandhu took to Twitter to spread harrowing but unfounded allegations about Celina Jaitly's relationships with both her mentor Feroz Khan and his son Fardeen as well as make other strange assertions. Millions of Twitter users, including Pakistanis, supported her after she responded to his abuse and false allegations from Pakistan.

The journalist continued to insult Celina's dignity and modesty from across the border because she had no legal redress because he was hiding in Pakistan. Celina approached the National Commission Of Women in India about the issue. In response, the National Commission of Women took action on the complaint and brought it before the Ministry Of External Affiars. 

Celina is happy that the perpetrator of such assault will now receive the proper penalty because the MEA has responded with full support and took up the issue with the Pakistani High Commission to take strict action as soon as possible.

In a long note on Twitter, Celina wrote, "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. I am so grateful to the National commission of women, to the amazing Ms @khushsundar for her understanding and support and wonderful work with women’s issues, Ms Rekha Sharma Chairperson @NCWIndiaand above all the Ministry of External Affairs and our GOVERNMENT OF INDIA because they upheld the pride of every Indian woman by initiating this action. 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.”

 

The actress also expressed her gratitude to her friends and family and ended her note with, "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!!"
