Kangana Ranaut reacts to BMC's fresh demolition plea | LIVE UPDATES

Kangana bought three flats on the fifth floor of a building called DB Bridge. After buying these three flats, Kangana built a house by combining the common lobby area, lift area and common passage of all three flats. A total of 8 changes were made in the house but the necessary permission was not taken from BMC while making these changes. After the notice of BMC in 2018, the civil court stayed the action of BMC. Today, the hearing, in this case, took place in Dindoshi court. During the hearing today, BMC asked the court to remove the stay order so that they can take action on illegal construction. BMC is also seeking legal advice from its legal team on the issue of stay order.

Kangana Ranaut's tweet: Come Udhav Thakeray and Karan Johar Gang you broke my work place come now break my house then break my face and body, I want world to see clearly what you anyway do underhand, whether I live or die I will expose you regardless

Kangana Ranaut tweeted "My office was suddenly declared illegal in last 24 hours, they have destroyed everything inside including furniture and lights and now I am getting threats they will come to my house and break it as well,I am glad my judgement of movie mafia’s favourite world’s best CM was right."

BMC says that many changes have been made in her flat as well. Earlier today the BMC had taken action by demolishing her Bandra office. BMC says that many changes have been made to the flat. The notice was given in March 2018. The BMC has filed a petition in the civil court against Kangana and sought permission to break the illegal construction.

BMC has moved the court against the illegal interior, modified construction and illegal gallery of this house. BMC says that like Kangana's office, there are many illegal constructions in the house which have to be broken by giving notice

Today, the Maharashtra Govt illegally broke down #KanganaRanaut’s house while she was on a flight to Mumbai, with only 24 hour notice. Completely illegal considering the Govt has banned demolitions due to Covid till September 30. This is what Fascism looks like.

Talking to reporters outside Kangana's office after the stay order, her lawyer Rizwan Siddiqui said, "The BMC is lying. It's lying on record (about illegal construction at the bungalow). They said they have given stop-work notice. But such notice is given when the construction process is underway. There is no construction going on at the place. It was over about one-and-a-half years ago."

Himachal Pradesh Chief Minister Jai Ram Thakur has condemned demolition of a portion of Kangana Ranaut's Mumbai bungalow saying she should get "proper atmosphere" to work in her field. Slamming the Uddhav Thackeray administration, Jai Ram Thakur said, "The conduct of Maharashtra government is unfortunate, I condemn it. The daughter of Himachal Pradesh, Kangana Ranaut raised her voice and expressed her opinion. They (Maharashtra government) have done this out of vendetta. This is unfortunate."

Taking to Twitter, the veteran actor wrote, "ग़लत ग़लत ग़लत है !! इसको bulldozer नही  #Bullydozer कहते है। किसी का घरोंदा इस बेरहमी से तोड़ना बिल्कुल ग़लत है। इसका सबसे बड़ा प्रभाव या प्रहार @KanganaTeam के घर पर नहीं बल्कि मुम्बई की ज़मीन और ज़मीर पर हुआ है। अफ़सोस अफ़सोस अफ़सोस है।"

In the clip, Kangana is heard saying in Hindi: "Udhhav Thackeray, do you think that you along with the film mafia broke my house and took big revenge? Today my home is broken, tomorrow your ego will be broken. This is the wheel of time. Remember this. It doesn't always remain the same."

Kangana has courted a controversy with her recent comments about the Mumbai Police and Maharashtra. In response to a remark by Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Raut where he asked her not to come back to the city after she claimed she felt unsafe in the city, Kangana had compared Mumbai with PoK.

Sanjay Nirupam: कंगना का ऑफिस अवैध था या उसे डिमॉलिश करने का तरीका ? क्योंकि हाई कोर्ट ने कार्रवाई को गलत माना और तत्काल रोक लगा दी। पूरा एक्शन प्रतिशोध से ओत-प्रोत था। लेकिन बदले की राजनीति की उम्र बहुत छोटी होती है। कहीं एक ऑफिस के चक्कर में शिवसेना का डिमॉलिशन न शुरु हो जाए ! #

Dia Mirza: Kangana comparing Mumbai to POK is not acceptable. But there is absolutely no doubt that @mybmc  moving to suddenly conduct a demolition of areas of her office space is totally questionable. Why now? Why like this? What were you doing all this while if there were irregularities?

She further tweeted, "I don’t agree with many of the things Kangana has said in the last few months. The name calling, the vicious personal attacks on individuals, the vilification of people. At the same time i am not okay with her being subjected to personal attacks."

Suchitra Krishnamoorthi reacts, "When laws of the land are totally disregarded by leaders themselves it is obvious we are slipping into a mafia state. What has happened to #KanganaRanaut s property today is a shame not only to our state but our entire country. Leaders cannot come from such hubris - shame."

Renuka Shahane tweeted, "Though I did not like @KanganaTeam 's comment comparing Mumbai to POK I am appalled by the revenge demolition carried out by @mybmc  You do not have to stoop so low. @CMOMaharashtra please intervene. There is a pandemic we are dealing with. Do we need this unnecessary drama?"

Taking to Twitter Shweta Singh Kirti wrote, "Today I am with @KanganaTeam. Kangana is not just building an empire for herself but also a hope for many women that if she can do it, you and I can do it too!!! This is patriarchy, crushing a woman’s honour/self-respect and her empire!! #KanganaRanaut #ShameOnBMC."

Captioning the video shared on Twitter, Kangana wrote alongside,  "तुमने जो किया अच्छा किया Slightly #DeathOfDemocracy."

The actress while sharing a number of videos showing the destruction at her Mumbai office wrote alongside, "DeathOfDemocracy."

Undue importance is being attached to the statements made by Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut, NCP chief Sharad Pawar said on Wednesday without naming her. He said people are not taking her remarks seriously. "We are giving undue importance to those making such statements. We will have to see what influence such statements have on the people at large," Pawar told reporters. "In my opinion, people do not take seriously (such statements)," the veteran leader said.

BJP MLA Ashish Shelar on Wednesday accused the Uddhav Thackeray-led Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) government of playing "vendetta politics" after the BMC razed illegal alterations at the Bandra bungalow of Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut.

Kangana Ranaut will reportedly head to meet her legal team to discuss the demolition drive that was carried out at her Mumbai office by the BMC today. She tested negative for Covid-19 and left for Mumbai from her hometown Manali, with Y-plus security. Her sister Rangoli Chandel is accompanying her on this journey.

There is no illegal construction in my house, also government has banned any demolitions in Covid till September 30, Bullywood watch now this is what Fascism looks like Slightly #DeathOfDemocracy #KanganaRanaut

Even as Kangana Ranaut landed in Mumbai airport on Wednesday, a section of the political set along with activists had already gone all out to extend support for the actress in her ongoing tussle with Shiv Sena. Among them is BJP Rajya Sabha MP Subramanian Swamy who asked the actress to keep faith. "Tell Kangana to keep the faith. We are with her in this struggle," Swamy tweeted on Wednesday.

The Karni Sena on Wednesday came out in support of actor Kangana Ranaut and staged a protest in the national capital outside the residence of Shiv Sena's Chief Spokesperson Sanjay Raut, amid the ongoing war of words between the two. The supporters of the 'Panga' actor also burnt Raut's effigy during the protest and were sloganeering.

The notice given is illegal and they entered the premises illegally. There was no work underway at the premises: Kangana Ranaut's lawyer Rizwan Siddiqui.

Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut's second coronavirus test report on Wednesday came negative, doctors said. After this, she left Mandi to reach Mumbai. Her flight was at 12 noon and landed in Mumbai at 2:30 pm. The actress will go directly to her Bandra office where BMC has demolished a part of her property.

Taking to Twitter, Kangana reacted to the BMC demolishing her property and called it her 'ram bhoomi.' She said, "The first film in Manikarnika films (her production house), is Ayodhya, it is not a building for me but Ram temple itself, today Babur has come there, today history will repeat itself Ram temple will be broken again but remember Babar, this temple will be built again, Jai Shri Ram, Jai Shri Ram, Jai Shri Ram"

BMC had put a new notice on the actress's office in Bandra on Wednesday morning stating that many alterations were carried out on the premises without due permissions. While Kangana's lawyer had written to BMC, it has rejected her appeal claiming that the work done on the property is "beyond approved plan".  In reaction to this, Kangana moved to the High Court against the demolition drive of her Bandra office. Bombay High Court began the hearing of the actress's plea against BMC at 12:30 pm today and stayed any further demolition. It asked the civic body to file a reply to the actor's petition. The next hearing will be at 3 pm tomorrow.
