Pune 15th July 2023: Hindutva leader and founder of Samasta Hindu Aghadi Milind Ekbote has withdrawn a petition filed at the Bombay High Court seeking quashing of FIR registered against him. His lawyer on Friday has informed the court that Ekbote will withdraw the petition regarding an FIR registered in Pune.

The alleged hate speech was given at an event organised at Natubag in the city to commemorate the killing of Afzal Khan by Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj. It was alleged that Ekbote in his speech used statements that could hurt religious sentiments. One more FIR was registered in the matter at Thane.
