Anurag Kashyap Will Be Arrested Soon, Says Athawale After Payal Ghosh Joins RPI

Mumbai: Actor Payal Ghosh, who had recently accused film director Anurag Kashyap of sexual misconduct, on Monday joined Union Minister Ramdas Athawale-led Republican Party of India (A) in Mumbai.

Soon after joining the party, she was named the vice president of its women’s wing.

Ghosh thanked Athawale for his support in her fight against Kashyap and promised to work for RPI and the country, according to news agengy PTI.

Athawale said that the entry of Ghosh and others into the party would strengthen it. “I told her RPI(A) is Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar’s party. It helps all sections of society, be it Dalits, Adivasis, OBCs, villagers, slum dwellers. The RPI will get a good face if you join the party. After I discussed this with her, she was ready to join the party,” Athawale was quoted as saying by PTI.

The Union minister also claimed that Kashyap, who has continuously denied the allegations levelled against him by Ghosh, would be arrested soon.

The actor had filed a rape case against Kashyap in September and met Maharashtra Governor BS Koshyari, demanding action against the filmmaker. She was accompanied by Athawale. The two had then also met the Mumbai Police’s joint commissioner (Law and Order) Vishwas Nangare Patil, seeking security for the actor.
