Why Is Rashmi Thackeray Being Compared With Former Bihar CM Rabri Devi?

“Twitter is abuzz today with a hashtag. #Marathi RabriDevi is trending on Twitter since Morning. We all know that Rabri devi was former Bihar CM herself, and wife of RJD Chief Lalu Prasad Yadav but who exactly is being referred to as Marathi Rabri Devi and why?

Let us first understand why #MarathiRabriDevi is trending.

It was a BJP leader from Pune named Jitendra Gajariya who first tweeted about it. On January 4th, Gajariya had tweeted a picture of Maharashtra CM Uddhav Thackeray’s wife: Rashmi U. Thackeray, with the caption: “”Marathi Rabri Devi””. Essentially he compared Rashmi Thackeray to Rabri devi. Gajariya is said to be a part of the BJP’s social media cell.

However, a massive controversy erupted in the state when the Mumbai Police decided to act against the tweet. The Mumbai Police’s Crime Branch CID-Cyber Cell on Thursday summoned BJP activist Jiten Gajaria for allegedly comparing Rashmi Thackeray to former Bihar chief minister and wife of Lalu Prasad Yadav, Rabri Devi.

BJP Mumbai spokesperson Vivekananda Gupta confirmed that Gajaria was called by the police at the Bandra Kurla Complex to record his statement.
