<p>The classical dancer-turned-activist, who had fought 2009 Lok Sabha elections against veteran BJP leader L K Advani from Gandhinagar constituency as an Independent candidate but lost, vented her ire on Modi as he has so far not condoled the death of her mother, who also hailed from Gujarat.</p>

<p>Veteran danseuse and Padma awardee Mrinalini Sarabhai, the exponent of classical dance forms who used her art to highlight the problems faced by modern society, died in Ahmedabad on Thursday due to age-related problems. She was 97.</p>
<p>Mallika has been a very vocal critic of Modi since he became chief minister of the state in 2001. She had filed a PIL in the High Court against Modi-led state administration over the 2002 riots and had organised protests against the BJP government.</p>
<p>The state police had also filed a case against Mallika Sarabhai for illegal trafficking of Indians to US by way of taking them to that country as part of her dancing troupe. However, the courts had given clean chit to Mallika in that case.</p>
