Controversy Surrounds Diljit Dosanjhs Upcoming Concert in Ahmedabad
Controversy arises over Diljit Dosanjhs concert in Ahmedabad as officials demand restrictions on certain songs and heightened security measures.
Ahmedabad, November 13 (Daily Kiran) : A new controversy has emerged surrounding Punjabi singer and actor Diljit Dosanjh’s upcoming concert in Ahmedabad, scheduled for November 21. The district child protection officer has written to the police commissioner requesting several restrictions ahead of the live performance.
The official has specifically asked Diljit not to perform four songs that promote alcohol, drugs, and violence. Concerns have also been raised about loud music, flashing lights, and inviting children on stage during the concert.
In the letter to the police commissioner, the four songs in question include “Patiala Peg,” “5 Tara Theke,” “Jeb Vicho Feem,” and “Jatt Fire Karda.” The child protection officer argues that the lyrics of these songs reference alcohol, opium, drugs, and weapons, which could negatively influence children and young people. It is recommended that these songs not be performed, even with altered lyrics.
Meanwhile, Diljit is set to perform in Indore on November 15, where he has already received threats via email regarding bomb attacks on three banks and the mayor’s secretariat. The threats were written in both Punjabi and English.
In response to the threats, security agencies have heightened their alert levels. Increased security measures have been implemented at the targeted locations. The bomb disposal squad conducted a thorough search of the mayor’s secretariat, considering all safety protocols.
The threatening emails specifically mentioned targeting Bandhan Bank, Bank of Baroda, Punjab National Bank, and the mayor’s secretariat in Indore. Following the receipt of these emails, the bomb disposal team carefully inspected the premises of the mayor’s office.
Indore’s mayor, Pushyamitra Bhargav, stated that some individuals are attempting to disrupt positive initiatives, but such threats will not yield any results. He emphasized that these threats will not affect the city’s events or development projects.
Police officer Rajesh Dandotia confirmed that threats were made to four different locations via email. The police are currently investigating these emails and tracing the email IDs used to send them. Efforts are also underway to determine the source of these threats and the individuals behind them.
