In her letter she wrote "Being a Marathi person, I expect some justice from your side as my personal life is unnecessarily being dragged into a controversy. Had late Balasaheb Thackeray (father of Uddhav Thackeray) been alive today, he would not have tolerated such personal attack on a woman's dignity.”

A woman's dignity is being toyed with in Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj' state. Had Balasaheb been here today, he wouldn't have liked it..." pic.twitter.com/rDOvzwCgBc

She also wrote, "I see you as the torch-bearer of his teachings and leadership. The dignity of a woman has become a joke in the regime that draws inspiration from the tenure of 17th-century king Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj.”

Redkar, who is a Marathi actress, said that she neither understands nor is interested in politics.

"The personal attacks reflect the lowest level of politics. I trust you and feel that there will be no injustice against me or my family”, she wrote in her letter.

Sameer Wankhede has become embroiled in controversy after State minister and NCP leader Nawab Malik accused him of illegal phone tapping. Malik also said that Wankhede was born as a Muslim, and had forged documents, including a caste certificate, to show that he belonged to the Hindu SC category to get a job under quota after clearing the UPSC examination.
