Trinamool Congress MP Mahua Moitra has made a controversial statement about Mata Mahakali. He said that he sees Mahakali Mata as a goddess who eats meat and drinks alcohol. The TMC MP was responding to a controversy over a movie poster. This poster shows Mahakali Devi smoking a cigarette.
Moitra said that there are many forms of Mahakali Mata. For me, Mahakali is a goddess who eats meat and accepts alcohol. People may have different opinions. You have the freedom to imagine your goddess. In some places alcohol is offered to the gods and in some places it is considered blasphemy.
Referring to Sikkim and Bhutan, Mahua Moitra said that people there offer alcohol to the gods and goddesses. In states like Uttar Pradesh, if you talk about offering alcohol as a prasad, it will be considered blasphemy. Who sees how Goddess Mahakali depends on her faith.
