Pointing at singer Kanika Kapoor as an example, Sona slammed Kanika’s irresponsible behaviour of hiding her travel history details and holding lavish parties after she returned from the UK. Kanika was one of four persons who tested positive for the coronavirus disease in Lucknow on Friday.
“Case in point, #KanikaKapoor hid her travel history after landing in #India (goddess knows how), attended events in Lucknow, Mumbai, went partying while staying in a 5 Glowing star& has the virus! So all of U giving me gyan about how ‘simplistic’ PM’s speech was, was it really?#WeThePeople,” she wrote.

“Contact mapping of people I have been in touch with is underway as well. I was scanned at the airport as per normal procedure 10 days ago when I came back home, the symptoms have developed only 4 days ago,” she added.
According to reports, after returning from London earlier this week, she hosted a lavish party which saw the attendance of many people, including political leaders. An FIR has been filed against Kanika for negligence and disobedience of the order issued by a public servant.
In another tweet, Sona criticised politicians for attending such parties even as coronavirus restrictions and a ban on large gatherings are in place. “And of course the netas & leaders who talk about ‘social distancing’ being the only way to combat the #coronavirus but themselves attending ‘parties’. Dushyant Singh, M.P & U.P health minister were with #KanikaKapoor ! Karnataka CM attended a wedding with another 2000 attending,” she wrote.
BJP leader and former Rajasthan chief minister Vasundhara Raje and her son MP Dushyant Singh was among the many who attended a recent party hosted by Kanika.
Following reports of the singer being tested positive for Covid-19, Raje took to Twitter to announce that she and her son have immediately self-quarantined as a matter of caution.
