'Babur has come to raze Mandir,' says Kangana as BMC enters office with demolition notice

A day after the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) issued a 'stop work' notice outside actor Kangana Ranaut's office, BMC officials on Wednesday pasted a new notice at her office stating that the structure will be demolished, and then proceeded to break open the lock of the premises.

BMC had on Tuesday given a 24-hour ultimatum to the actor directing her to produce permission for the building construction. Now the BMC notice says that Kangana has failed to produce permission and that the municipal body has turned down her request for 7 days' time. It further states that the structure will be demolished at the 'risk, cost and consequence' of Kangana Ranaut. 

Responding to the same, Kangana Ranaut who is will reach Chandigarh airport shortly and will arrive in Mumbai by afternoon said that 'her spirit will only rise higher and higher.' She said that she has promised to give blood to Maharashtra pride and 'Maha government and their goons' cannot harm her spirit.

She has also tweeted about the day when the first film under the banner of Manikarnika films was made. Kangana said that on that day construction of Ram Mandir in Ayodhya was announced. The actor said it is not a building for her but it is her 'Ram temple' and lashed out at BMC saying that 'today Babur has come there, today history will repeat itself.' "Ram temple will be broken again but remember Babar this temple will be built again, this temple will be built again, Jai Shri Ram," Kangana said in a tweet.
