“Haryana Police’s Strict Action in the Objectionable Song ‘Tateeree’ Case. FIR Registered Against Singer Aditya Pratik Singh Sisodia alias Badshah. Process Initiated to Issue Look Out Circular (LOC) Against the Accused, Notice Issued to Appear Before Police. Police Teams Continuously Raiding for Arrest. Panchkula Police Got the Controversial Song Removed from YouTube, Action Continues to Remove Video from Other Social Media Platforms. Strict Legal Action Will Also Be Taken Against Those Sharing Objectionable Content,” the Haryana Police posted on X.
The FIR, dated March 6, has been registered at Cyber Police Station, Sector-20, Panchkula under Section 296 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) and Sections 3 and 4 of the Indecent Representation of Women (Prohibition) Act, 1986.
According to the police, the video depicts minor girls wearing school uniforms throwing away their school bags and appearing to run away from their studies. The use of words such as “Badshala” in the song has also been found to portray the school environment and education in a misleading and inappropriate manner.
Furthermore, objectionable and derogatory expressions towards women and girls have also been identified in the lyrics.
During the investigation, it has also come to light that a Haryana Roadways bus from the Jind depot is featured in the video. Police are verifying whether permission was obtained from the concerned department for its use in the video.
If it is found that the bus was used without authorisation, legal action will also be initiated against the responsible persons under the relevant section.
Similarly, a government school premises has also been shown in the video. Police are examining whether proper approval was taken from the competent authority for shooting at the location. If it is established that the premises were used without permission, action will be taken against the responsible individuals as per the law.
Earlier this week, objections were raised against Badshah’s latest song ‘Tateeree’ over its allegedly objectionable lyrics. The Haryana State Commission for Women (HSCW) took suo motu cognizance of the matter and issued official summons. (ANI)
