Punjab Police on Tuesday arrested Bollywood actress Rakhi Sawant following a case that was filed against her for making derogatory remarks against sage Valmiki.

A local court in Ludhiana had issued an arrest warrant against her for the remark. The warrant was issued on March 9 on the basis of a complaint filed against her for hurting religious sentiments of the Valmiki community with her comments on a TV programme.
