Summary: Shiv Sena has filed a complaint against stand-up comedian Kunal Kamra over the “Gaddar” remark, sparking debate.
Kunal Kamra once again is in trouble for his recent statements on Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde. Shinde's Shiv Sena has filed a complaint against Kamra, for making insulting remarks against Shinde during a performance, including calling him a 'Gaddar', meaning a traitor.
The case was filed at Marine Drive Police Station in Mumbai, where the party claimed Kamra's words were derogatory and disrespectful to their leader. They want strict action against the comedian, claiming that such remarks could spark unrest among party followers.
Kamra is well-known for his political humor and has often criticized politicians from all sides. His most recent comments, however, triggered a strong response from the prevailing Shiv Sena group, which split apart from Uddhav Thackeray's leadership to unite with the BJP.
While the police have yet to take action, the scandal has once again raised concerns about free speech and the limits of political humor in India.
