The city police have again cancelled a stand-up comedy show by comic Munawar Faruqui, scheduled to be held on Friday at a convention hall in J.P. Nagar.
The police cancelled the show following a complaint filed by a hitherto unknown Hindutva organisation called Jai Sri Ram Sena Sanghatan to the City Police Commissioner alleging the show “Dongri to Nowhere” would hurt the religious sentiments of Hindus.
However, making no reference to the complaint, P. Krishnakant, DCP, South Division, told reporters that the event was organised without taking any permission and hence it was cancelled.
