Creative freedom an old tradition of India but people must not misuse it: Sunil Ambedkar

Addressing a press conference on the last day of the three-day long ‘Prant Pracharak’ meet organised at Rajasthan’s Jhunjhunu, Rashtriya Swayamsewak Sangh’s Communication head Mr. Sunil Ambekar said that creative freedom is an old tradition of India but people must not use the same to hurt others.

Mr. Ambedkar also condemned the killing of Kanhaiya Lal in Udaipur and added that people of the Muslim community should come forward, talk about it and reproach it.

Answering a question related to the ‘Kaali’ movie controversy that erupted after Canada-based filmmaker Leena Manimekalai shared a picture of the goddess on her social media handle in which Kaali is depicted as smoking and holding a gay pride flag in hand, Mr. Ambedkar said that people must be mindful while exercising creative freedom.
