However, she termed the molestation case against her party leader Jitendra Awhad false.

Shiv Sena MP Priyanka Chaturvedi demanded action against Abdul Sattar and accused the state home minister of "misusing his power".

"Women are criticized badly, action should be taken. The home minister is misusing his power. The Governor of Maharashtra had already written a letter to the chief minister on this issue," she said. (ANI)
