Joining battle, Thakur tweeted on Saturday, "Congressmen have old experience of burning people, from Sikhs in 1984 to Naina Sahni (victim of 1995 `tandoor murder in Delhi) in tandoor. @RahulGandhi termed (me) terrorist and his MLA Govardhan Dangi will burn me. So, I am reaching Biaora at his residence in Multanpura at 4 pm on December 8, 2019. Burn me".

In ar tweet, she said called Dangi a close associate of senior Congress leer Digvijaya Singh, whom she defeated in 2019 Lok Sabha polls from Bhopal, and a propagator of "Rahul Gandhi's and Kamal Nath government's idea of n-violence".
