CPI(ml) politburo member alleges sexual harassment by journalist

 Alleging sexual harassment, activist and CPI (ML) politburo member Kavita Krishnan, has filed a complaint against journalist Sumant Bhattacharya with the cyber cell of Delhi police on Wednesday. “I have filed a complaint against Sumit Bhattacharya, a journalist, for sexually harassing and targeting me on Facebook,” said Krishnan. Krishnan has filed her complaint with the Delhi Police’s Cyber Cell, following the direction of the Cyber Cell official. All India Progressive Women’s Association (AIPWA) head Krishnan is one of the most recognisable faces of women’s rights in the country. Krishnan’s Facebook account called ‘The Spoilt Modern Indian Woman’ had put up a post slamming JNU’s dossier on the sex-and-alcohol-filled lives of seditious anti-national students. It named the authors of the dossier and the fact that they tried to bring Krishnan down during a TV debate by calling her a “Naxalite who has free sex”.
