(MENAFN- Live Mint) Vijay Deverakonda is once again in the legal hotseat and has been booked under the SC/ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act for allegedly making offensive remarks that hurt the sentiments of the tribal community.

The complaint was lodged by Nenavath Ashok Kumar Naik, the State President of the Joint Action Committee of Tribal Communities. He accused Deverakonda of making insulting comments during a pre-release event for his upcoming film Retro.

Last month the actor found himself in legal trouble for allegedly making derogatory comments against tribal people. A petitioner had alleged that Vijay Deverakonda in his speech about the Pahalgam terror attack remarked that the attacks were akin to clashes between tribal communities hundreds of years ago.
