In another controversial remark, the BJP leader H. K. Laxman has questioned the credentials of Sania Mirza following her appointment as brand ambassador of Telangana.
K. Laxman labelled the tennis star as daughter-in-law of Pakistan, stressing that Sania was married to that country’s cricketer, Shoaib Malik.
According to Indian media reports, the BJP leader stated that Sania was born in Maharashtra and settled in Hyderabad only later and, hence, is a “non-local”.
