BJP MP Hema Malini tweets film shooting photos as Mathura burns

Even as the death toll in a massive clash between police and encroachers in Hema Malini's Lok Sabha constituency ( Mathura) crossed 20, the BJP MP was tweeting pictures of her ongoing shooting of her film at Mud Island in Mumbai.

However, when the 67-year-old actor's indifference on the clashes was noted on the micro-blogging site, she was quick to delete the tweets and condone the incident in a fresh series of tweets.

24 people, including an SP and an SHO, have been killed in yesterday's massive clash between police and members of a sect who had encroached on government land in Mathura. 

 

Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav ordered a probe by the divisional commissioner of Mathura into the violence at Jawahar Bagh where nearly 3,000 people had illegally set up camp on an over 260-acre plot since last two years.
