Union Minister Kiren Rijiju SUPPORTS Anushka Sharma-Virat Kohli in littering video controversy

Celebrity couple Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma are in news these days for sharing a video of a man who was littering the road. The Indian skipper had posted a video of the littering incident on his Instagram handle where the ‘Zero’ actress can be seen scolding the men for throwing stuff on the road. The video sparked a debate on social media, while some applauded Virushka for awakening social responsibility, others called it a mere publicity stunt. Union Minister of State for Home Affairs Kiren Rijiju has supported Anushka and Virat in the entire littering video controversy. ‘’C'mon, Virat & Anushka need publicity!! They would rather crave for privacy!! Our conduct reflects our mentality. Civic sense is social ethics and ethical behaviour doesn't come with wealth & education. Let's keep India clean. #SwachhBharat,’’ Rijiju wrote on Twitter.

The man, who identified himself as Arrhan Singh, took to Facebook to write a long post slamming Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli. His mother also posted a long note on Instagram attacking the Sui Dhaaga actress & the Indian cricket team captain and called the incident a cheap publicity stunt. Bollywood filmmaker Karan Johar also backed the couple and called it the need of the day.

This is the order of the day!! Well done @AnushkaSharma !! https://t.co/voFPnrey1T
