The statement of the Samajwadi Party MP came during the zero hour in Rajya Sabha. She stated that people working in the entertainment industry are “flogged” by social media.

“People in the entertainment industry are being flogged by social media. People who made their name in the industry have called it a gutter. I completely disagree. I hope that the government tells such people not to use this kind of language,” she said.
