New Delhi: Actress and BJP MP Hema Malini faced ire after she tweeted a picture of her from sets of a movie, while violence was raging in her constituency Mathura.
The actress, though, deleted the tweets in matter of few hours, but not soon enough to stop people from raising questions on her duties.
Even her party, the ruling BJP, had to hold a press conference in afternoon to defend the tweets of “Dream girl”.
“I am an artist and was shooting, which is why I couldn’t be there in Mathura. I have my staff and people in administration who inform me when any small or big incident happens in the constituency, and they told me about this too.”
Hema told reporters.

Hema Malini added.
