Karni Sena founder demands probe into 'role' of Bhansali's SlB group in Nahargarh Fort death

Shri Rajput Karni Sena founder lokendra Singh Kalvi on Tuesday demanded a probe into the ‘role’ of ‘Padmavati’ director Sanjay leela Bhansali’s SlB group in the death of a man at Nahargarh Fort.

The body of Chetan Kumar Saini (40) was found hanging from the boundary wall of the Nahargarh Fort near the Rajasthan capital on November 24, with messages referring to the Bollywood epic drama ‘Padmavati’ scribbled on nearby stones.

Kalvi said the incident should be probed at the highest level “to ascertain the role of the group (SlB) into the incident”, which, he claimed, was a conspiracy against the Karni Sena and to “weaken the movement” against the controversial film.

“Two of the messages scribbled on the stones near the boundary wall of the fort were for provoking the Karni Sena and for disturbing the communal harmony in the city. It should be investigated who is behind this,” he told reporters here. The police have claimed that Saini had committed suicide by hanging himself with a rope tied to the boundary wall of the fort.
