TMC MP Saayoni Ghosh has issued a statement after BJP leader Pradeep Dixit in Uttar Pradesh announced a ₹1-crore "reward" for anyone who "beheads" her. "Is declaring a bounty to behead a woman, a sitting MP...by a BJP public representative...the true idea of 'Nari Shakti Vandan' in New Bharat?" questioned Saayoni. Dixit issued threats over her controversial 2015 post.
