The BJP hit out at TMC MP Mahua Moitra over remarks on the 'Kaali' film poster. The Trinamool Congress (TMC) has condemned party MP Mahua Moitra's remarks on Goddess Kaali where she called the Hindu deity a "meat-eating, alcohol-accepting goddess".

Speaking at the India Today Conclave East 2022 on Tuesday, Mahua Moitra reacted to a controversy over a movie poster showing Goddess Kaali smoking a cigarette.

“Kaali to me is a meat-eating, alcohol-accepting goddess. You have the freedom to imagine your goddess. There are some places where whiskey is offered to gods and in some other places it would be blasphemy,” Moitra said, while speaking on day 2 of India Today Conclave East 2022.

Bengal BJP leader Suvendu Adhikari reacted to her comments and stated that they will file FIRs against her and also her demanded immediate arrest.
