Controversy

In 2021, BJP’s Lakshadweep President C Abdul Khader Haji filed a case against Aisha under Sections 124 A (sedition) and 153 B (hate speech) at Kavaratti police station for calling Lakshadweep’s administrator Praful K Patel a “bioweapon.” In his complaint, Haji alleged that Sultana, during a debate on the ongoing political crisis in Lakshadweep on a Malayalam news channel, criticised the central government and called Patel a bio-weapon of the center. Later, Aisha clarified her statements through a Facebook post. She wrote,

I had used the word bio-weapon in the TV channel debate. I have felt Patel as well as his policies [have acted] as a bio-weapon. It was through Patel and his entourage that Covid-19 spread in Lakshadweep. I have compared Patel as a bioweapon, not the government or the country…. You should understand. What else should I call him…”

After the incident, Lakshadweep Sahitya Pravarthaka Sangam showed its support towards Aisha and said that it was an inhumane approach of the administrator to depict Aisha as an anti-national. ^[1]The Wire
