A special SC/ST court in Jodhpur, Rajasthan has directed police to file an FIR against cricketer Hardik Pandya for an alleged tweet about Ambedkar. 

The court's order came on a petition filed by a DR Meghwal. 

News reports quoted Meghwal as saying Pandya had posted his tweet on December 26 last year. 

“Which Ambedkar ??? The one who drafted a cross law and constitution or the one who spread the disease called reservation in the country,” Pandya reportedly said in his tweet. 

News reports quoted Meghwal as saying Pandya had hurt the sentiments of his community. And that he (Pandya) should be given "adequate and suitable" punishment.

News reports quoted the petitioner as saying Pandya had hurt the sentiments of his community. And that he (Pandya) should be given 'adequate and suitable' punishment. 

Hardik Pandya is being groomed not to be an all-rounder but to be a specialist. In the last two games, due to Kedar's absence, Pandya completed his 10-overs spell with a decent economy rate. Virat is polishing him as the fifth bowler and also letting him bat at number five or six to build up a strong middle batting order.
