One person has been booked for allegedly making objectionable comment about Prime Minister Narendra Modi's mother on social media, a senior police official said Wednesday.
The case was registered at the Andheri police station a few days ago based on a complaint filed by Nitesh Tiwary (27), general secretary of Andheri unit of the Bharatiya Janata Yuva Morcha (BYJM), police said.
