New Delhi: Activist and All India Progressive Women’s Association (AIPWA) secretary Kavita Krishnan has sparked a row on Twitter after she accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi of having a record of stalking daughters.

During his radio programme ‘Mann Ki Baat’, on Sunday Modi had appealed people to share a selfie with their daughters and tag it as #SelfieWithDaughter to celebrate girl child.

Following PM Modi’s appeal, Kavita Krishnan, posted on her Twitter, “Careful before sharing #SelfieWithDaughter with #LameDuckPM. He has a record of stalking daughters.” leaving Modi supporters red faced.

It may be recalled here that in 2013, two investigative news portals had jointly released audiotapes of conversations between Amit Shah and IPS officer G L Singhal, accusing Narendra Modi’s aide of misusing the official machinery to order surveillance of a young woman at the behest of “saheb” in 2009.

Named “The Stalkers,” a short film of around 50 minutes was played in a press conference held at the Press Club. The story was an outcome of efforts put in by Cobrapost’s Anirudh Bahal and Gulail.com’s Ashish Khetan and Raja Chowdhury.
