A case has been registered against Pithadiya under Section 469 (Forgery for purpose of harming reputation), Section 295A (Deliberate and malicious acts intended to outrage religious feelings of any class by insulting its religion or religious beliefs) and the IT Act of the IPC
As per the state Congress’s website, Pithadiya is the chairman of its Scheduled Castes department.
Based on a complaint filed by local BJP leader Vaibhav Makwana, Ahmedabad city police’s cyber crime branch arrested Pithadiya, a resident of Vejalpur area, an official said.
“Further investigation is on,” said Deputy Commissioner of Police, cyber crime branch, Ajit Rajian.
The complaint said that Pithadiya shared an obscene photograph on X, and claimed that the man seen in the picture was Mohit Pandey who was recently appointed as the priest of the Ram Lalla temple in Ayodhya.
“When I cross-checked the claim in the post, I found that the post had been deliberately created using the photograph of a man who resembles Pandey.
