Gopal Italia: Aam Admi Party Gujarat leader Gopal Italia first called Prime Minister Narendra Modi in a video and now the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has released a new video in which he is seen mocking the 100-year-old mother of the Prime Minister.
BJP leader and Union minister Smriti Irani posted Italia’s video on Twitter and hit out at AAP convener and Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal. “Arvind Kejriwal, gutter mouth Gopal Italia now abuses Hira Ba with your blessings. I proffer no outrage…
Serial offender
BJP IT cell chief Amit Malviya called Italia a “serial offender”. “Gopal Italia, AAP’s Gujarat President, close aide of Kejriwal, is a serial offender, who treats women with contempt and sexist disregard. After constantly referring to women with the ‘C’ word, offending those who go to katha and mandir, now calls PM’s aged mother ‘nautanki baaz’,” BJP’s Amit Malviya tweeted.
Italia detained
Gopal Italia was on Thursday detained by Delhi Police after he appeared before the National Commission for Women for his comments in the video against Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
Reacting to police action against the AAP leader, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal said Italia’s detention had triggered massive anger in the Patel community across Gujarat.

Taking to Twitter, the AAP national convenor also asked why “entire BJP” was after Italia.
Sisodia slams BJP
Deputy chief minister of Delhi Manish Sisodia termed Italia’s detention as “BJP politics” and alleged he was detained because he belonged to a party that knew how to transform schools.
NCW chairperson Rekha Sharma told reporters after the hearing that Italia had claimed that he was not the person in the video in a verbal statement. However, in his written response, he said he did not mean it. An NCW official said the commission had to rush to arrange a translator to record Italia’s statement as he started speaking in Gujarati in the middle of the hearing.
