Varun Grover wants closure in harassment allegation, writer who tweeted screenshot responds

Varun Grover Tuesday demanded closure in a matter of sexual harassment allegation against him, which he has categorically denied, leading the author, who first shared the accusatory screenshot, to disclose the name of the source who forwarded the anonymous account on Twitter.

In his open letter, Grover, who has been a vocal supporter of #MeToo movement, said the allegation against him has not only affected his mental health and professional life but also his ability to take a social stand.

"Revolutions are beautiful. They are cathartic, powerful, necessary, and like #metoo - inevitable. And revolutions, inevitably, have some collateral damage too," Grover said in a post on Medium, which he shared on Tuesday.

"... Am I angry? Yes. Is my mental health in shambles? Yes. Do I occasionally feel like a victim of an agenda? Yes. And would I still say 'Believe All Women'? Yes. But please bring in the checks to differentiate it from 'Believe All Screenshots'. Revolutions can be messy but they can't be perceived as unjust."
In his letter Tuesday, Grover said he had reached out to every female junior from his batch in college and has been assured that "such an incident did not happen."
