Maharashtra BJP leader Pravin Darekar on Wednesday said that if Kangana Ranaut has consumed drugs then NCB should also probe her. 

"If Kangana has said she was a drug addict then the NCB (Narcotics Control Bureau) should probe. Law is equal for all in our country," Darekar told reporters.

The Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) on Wednesday summoned Bollywood actors Deepika Padukone, Sara Ali Khan, Shraddha Kapoor and Rakul Preeet Singh for questioning in a drug-related case.

The development comes in the wake of the investigation into a drug-related case linked to the death of Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput.

Earlier in this month the Maharashtra government had ordered a probe by Mumbai police into allegations by actor Shekhar Suman's son Adhyayan Suman that Ranaut took drugs.

Mr Darekar said no one will support if new and budding actors in film industry are falling prey to drugs.

"Should'nt we take precautions if actors in one of the biggest film industries in the world are getting addicted (to drugs)?" he questioned.
