Lawyer addressing media soon after the Court verdict
Nagpur News: The ‘now yes then no’ show over Honey Singh finally ended in the cancellation of the concert that many of the youngsters in Nagpur were looking forward to. The High Court Judge asked the organizer to either withdraw the petition or face the order against him. He finally chose the former one, ending the confusion surrounding the show for the last few days. The show was scheduled to be organized at Mankapur Indoor Stadium on August 10. However, since the announcement was made, couple of organizations including those from the Sikh community raised their objections over the show. They contended that most of the songs rendered by Honey Singh contain objectionable content and reflects disrespect to the women.
Hearing the petition, the judge asked the organizer about the details of permission sought from the Collector, Police Commissioner and Divisional Commissioner. The judge wanted to know that from how many of these authorities the organizer has sought permission. The organizer contended that permission could only be sought once the court grants green signal.
The police commissioner mentioned that the law and order situation could worsen if permission is given to the show, citing that over 15 organizations have objected to the show. Following this, the organizer, sensing the court’s action against him, withdrew the petition.
