Bollywood Actress Richa Chadha landed in huge trouble after uploading a tweet which didn’t go well among the public and the supporters of Indian Army. The actress is facing the heat after reacting to the statement of Lt. General Upendra Dwivedi who said that the Indian Army is ready to execute orders like taking back Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. In June 2020, twenty Indian soldiers were martyred in the Galwan clashes.

“We are fully prepared to take back PoK from Pakistan. We r waiting the orders from the govt. We will complete the operation quickly. Before that if Pakistan is violating ceasefire, the answer will be different, even they can not imagine.” – Commanding-in-Chief Northern Command IA said.

Users of the online platforms are trolling the actress for “mocking” the Indian Army and belittling the sacrifice of the Jawans in the 2020 Galwab clash between India and China. Manjinder Singh, one of the leaders of BJP party said that the tweet is “Disgraceful” and should be withdrawn at the earliest.

Many other online users got upset over the remark made by the actress. Among the many, one of the top tier Bollywood actors Akshay Kumar came up with a tweet in his twitter timeline, writing “Hurts to see this. Nothing ever should make us ungrateful towards our armed forces. Woh hain toh aaj hum hain. 🙏”

After her statement caused a row, the actress came up with a press note, asking apology to the public. “Even though it can never be my intention in the least, if the 3 words which are being dragged into a controversy have offended or hurt anyone, I apologize and also say that it would sadden me if even unintentionally my words have triggered this feeling in my brothers in the Fauj of which my own Nanaji has been an illustrious part” Richa said.

“As a Lt. Col, he took a bullet in the leg in the Indo-China war, in 1960s. My Mamaji was a paratrooper. It’s in my blood. A whole family is affected when their son is martyred or even injured while saving the nation which is made up of people like us and I personally know how it feels. It is an emotive issue for me” her post further read.
