Bengaluru: Mandya MP and BJP leader Sumalatha Ambareesh on Monday reacted to the demands of several BJP leaders for an investigation against Mandya’s student Muskan Khan who allegedly received praises from Al-Qaeda leader for her heroics against the Hindutva goons when they confronted her at college campus earlier in February this year.
