“Don’t Try to Intimidate Me—My Mother Will Tear You Apart!”: BJP MLA’s Daughter Stands Her Ground Amid Political Storm in Lucknow

In a dramatic turn of events on the streets of Lucknow, politics took a personal twist when the daughter of BJP MLA Ketki Singh issued a fierce warning to Samajwadi Party (SP) workers: “Don’t try to intimidate me—if you even point a finger at me, my mother will tear you apart.” The viral statement has ignited a heated debate about political boundaries and the safety of politicians’ families.

How Did the Confrontation Begin?

It was broad daylight in Lucknow, but the atmosphere was anything but calm. Outside the residence of Ketki Singh, SP’s women workers gathered in large numbers, chanting slogans and demanding answers. The reason? A controversial comment made by Ketki Singh about Akhilesh Yadav’s government had sparked outrage among SP supporters.

Inside the house, the MLA’s 16-year-old daughter found herself at the center of the storm. Alone and unafraid, she confronted the crowd through social media, delivering a message that quickly made headlines:
“I am Ketki Singh’s daughter. Today, a crowd gathered outside our house, shouting slogans because of a statement my mother made about Akhilesh Yadav’s government. These people think they can scare a 16-year-old girl and play politics. If this is what they’ve learned from their leaders, it’s wrong. No matter how much you try to intimidate me, I’m not scared. And if you try to point a finger at me, my mother will tear you apart.”

She further challenged the protesters, telling them to confront her mother in Ballia, where Ketki Singh is currently serving as MLA, instead of targeting a young girl alone at home.

MLA Ketki Singh Responds: “My Daughter’s Safety is Non-Negotiable”

The confrontation didn’t end there. Ketki Singh herself stepped into the fray, her voice firm and resolute. She announced plans to file an FIR against those who threatened her daughter and demanded increased security.
“My daughter did nothing to deserve this. I will not tolerate anyone threatening her. Even with all the security and power I have, my daughter is too frightened to attend school. If this is the situation now, what will happen if these people come to power? Will I have no choice but to marry off my daughter for her safety?”

Ketki Singh also emphasized that she never dragged anyone’s family into politics, urging her opponents to fight her directly and not target children.

The Political Backdrop

The incident traces back to a statement Ketki Singh made about Akhilesh Yadav, which inflamed the SP camp. Their women workers responded by marching to her Lucknow home, but with the MLA absent, her teenage daughter became the focal point of their anger. The episode has sparked outrage from Ballia to Lucknow, raising questions about the ethics of involving politicians’ families in political disputes.

The Bigger Question: Is It Fair to Target Politicians’ Children?

As this clash reverberates through Uttar Pradesh’s political circles, a pressing question emerges: Is it ever justified to make children the target of political protest? Should the families of public figures be shielded from the fallout of political controversy?
