Ravi Kishan gets Y plus category security, thanks to CM Yogi Adityanath

BJP MP and actor Ravi Kishan has been provided with Y-plus category security following threats to life after he spoke out about Bollywood-drug nexus links. In a tweet, the actor expressed gratitude to Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath. Ravi Kishan thanked the Chief Minister for providing security for his 'family and the people of his constituency' and said that his voice would continue to echo people's thoughts. "Respected Maharaj ji, with my security in mind the Y+ category protection you have activated for me, my family and the people of my Lok Sabha constituency has made us indebted to you and we thank you for it. My voice will continue to resonate in the House," he tweeted. The BJP MP has been speaking against the drug cartel that is active in Bollywood. His statements have drawn a backlash from celebrities including fellow MP Jaya Bachchan. It was earlier reported that the BJP MP was receiving threat calls after his comments on Bollywood's alleged drug usage in his Lok Sabha address. Reacting to the reports, Kishan had said that he will speak at the right time. "I've raised my voice for youths & future of film industry. I didn't think about my life. Desh ke bhavishya ke liye 2-5 goli bhi kha lenge, to koi chinta nahi hai," he was quoted saying in news agency ANI's report. (All photos: Instagram)
