What did Maria Goretti say
It so happened that Ivanka Trump shared a bunch of pictures from the pre-wedding gala hosted by the Ambanis' in Jamnagar. In the first picture itself, she was seen standing in front of a huge elephant at the decorated venue. The elephant also had some decorations on its head.
Maria Goretti shared this picture on her Instagram Stories and wrote in the caption: “I'm appalled at this picture of the Ambani celebration. I don't think this should happen to any animal, specially not to animals that are being rescued and rehabilitated. Heartbreaking just heartbreaking that this elephant was made to stand like a prop, in the middle of noise and people.”
