BJP MP and Bhojpuri superstar Manoj Tiwari on Monday pitched for a CBI inquiry into the suicide of Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput and said those hailing from small towns always face discrimination in the Hindi film industry.
Tiwari, who met the deceased actor's bereaved family members at his residence here, told reporters that he was in favour of a "high-level inquiry" into the incident. "I would urge Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray to do the needful by recommending a CBI inquiry. There must be a high-level investigation into the circumstances that drove the young actor to suicide," he said.
