Not perturbed by the death threat received on social media, Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) president Sharad Pawar said on Friday that if “anyone thinks that one’s voice can be silenced by issuing threats, that person is under a misconception”.
The NCP said a message to the 82-year-old on Facebook warned, “You will soon meet the same fate as Dabholkar.” Narendra Dabholkar was an anti-superstition crusader who was shot dead in Pune on August 20, 2013 by men allegedly linked to radical organisation Sanatan Sanstha.
