The video has garnered more than 151.4k views. The BJP leader has not issued a statement regarding the viral video.
For the unversed, Latha lost in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections from Hyderabad constituency to All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) chief Asaduddin Owaisi by 3,38,087 votes.
Latha was the saffron party’s first-ever female candidate in Telangana. The party fielded her to challenge Owaisi’s dominance in the predominantly Muslim constituency. Her campaign primarily focussed on development, women’s rights, and alleged Muslim radicalisation.
Past Controversy
Latha also landed in controversy after she directed an imaginary arrow at a mosque in the city. On the day of the polls, she personally examined the voter IDs of burqa-clad Muslim women at one of the polling booths. Subsequently, a case was lodged against her.
