<p>A Muslim woman was thrown out of home by her in laws and hubby in Uttar Pradesh's Ballia district, about 400 kilometres from here, for allegedly making paintings of prime minister Narendra Modi and chief minister Yogi Adityanath.<br /> <br />According to the police sources here on Sunday, the woman Nagma had been married to one Parvez Ahmed, a resident of Basarikhpur village in the district in November last year.<br /> <br />The woman was fond of painting and used to draw pictures of Hindu gods and goddesses. Police officials, quoting the locals, said that there were several paintings of gods and goddesses in her house. Nagma had made a painting of Lord Ganesha, which had been put up on the walls at Sikandarpur police station, reports said.<br /> <br />Parvez, however, got very angry, when she made the painting of Modi and Yogi, and allegedly threw her out of the house forcing her to take shelter at her parent's house at Muturi village in the same district. <br /> <br />A panchayat was also held to resolve the matter but nothing came out of it, sources said.<br /> <br />Nagma's father Shamsher Khan lodged a complaint with the police alleging that her daughter was thrown out for making the paintings of Modi and Yogi. He also alleged that Parvez had assaulted Nagma and was also planning to marry again.<br /> <br />Parvez denied the allegations and said that Nagma was ''mentally retarded''. ''We fear that she may harm herself some day and we may be implicated in the same,'' he said.<br /> <br />Local police said a case under the dowry act lodged by the woman was pending in the district court. ''We are investigating the matter,'' said a district police official in Ballia.</p>
