Mumbai, Maharashtra
Breakaway faction Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) headed by Raj Thackeray reported to police"objectionable material" posted on fake Twitter and Facebook accounts of children of party chief.
In a written complaint to the cyber cell, it claimed identities of Urvashi and Amit were being misused to post objectionable material on social fora.
"We decided to approach police as Facebook matters are sensitive now with so many events happening around," said Anil Shidore, party general secretary.
Shidore, in-charge of MNS IT wing, said the party had informed police in 2011 about fake Twitter handles on Raj."Our sympathisers have over the past two years asked creators of these fake profiles to back off. While some have, others continue to post tweets."
Shidore said while the party had lost count of fake profiles, it had a fair idea of the material being posted.
"We felt the time had come as some messages had begun to be confusing and misleading."
