Don’t distort historical facts: Pratibha Patil

JAIPUR: Former president Pratibha Patil said today that there should be no distortion of historical facts while making films.

“Rani Padmavati was the symbol of women’s honour and the honour should remain. Women should be respected,” Patil said when asked about the recently released controversial film Padmaavat, which faced wrath of several Rajput groups, including Karni Sena.  They were against the film for its alleged ‘distortion of history’.
