Gurugram, September 9
Following risk of protests by Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) and Bajrang Dal, a forthcoming present of slapstick comedian Kunal Kamra has been cancelled.
Kamra was scheduled to carry out on September 17 and 18 at Studio Xo Bar in Sector 29.
The VHP and Bajrang Dal submitted a memorandum to the Gurugram Deputy Commissioner as we speak threatening to carry protest and disrupt the present, if it was not cancelled. They alleged that Kamra was identified to harm spiritual sentiments by mocking Hindu deities.
While administration remains to be to react on the memorandum, the internet hosting venue itself cancelled the present to keep away from the difficulty. No official assertion has been issued as but.
“An artist by the name of Kunal Kamra is organising a show at Studio Xo Bar in Sector 29, Gurugram, on September 17. He has a habit of mocking our Gods. An FIR has also been filed against him earlier in this regard. This show will lead to communal tension in Gurugram and thus we request it be cancelled at the earliest or we will protest and disrupt,” learn the memorandum.
The staff of two outfits even visited the venue to warn the organisers and because of this, they cancelled the present.
“We have informed ticketing company and the show won’t happen. They came and threatened disruption. We want no trouble,” mentioned the bar administration.
Kunal Kamra is but to answer the problem. Speaking on the problem, Yashwant Shekhawat of VHP mentioned, “We can not sit and let anyone harm our spiritual sentiments. Yes, we spoke to the bar administration explaining our level. We additionally apprised administration of risk this
present posed to communal concord. We are glad they took discover and cancelled the present.”
