Punjab rapper Yo Yo Honey Singh is yet again in controversy. A BJP leader Arvind Sharma has written to Punjab DGP Gaurav Yadav to file an FIR against the rapper and even take down his song from YouTube and all other platforms.
Arvind Sharma who is Co-Convenor of BJP Punjab in his letter to Punjab DGP has claimed that Honey Singh's song Naagan 'maligns Punjabi music, insults Punjabi identity, and deeply hurts the sentiments of Punjabis'.
Notably, Honey Singh's song Naagan was released 2 years back and in the video the rapper was seen dancing with foreign women who were in bikini.
Arvind Sharma in his letter writes-
"Punjabi song titled “Naggan”, sung by Honey Singh, is being openly streamed on YouTube and other digital platforms. The said song’s video contains excessive n*dity, vulgar dance movements, and sexu@lly explicit visuals, which are completely against Punjabi culture, social values, and moral standards."
Sharma's letter further reads, "Punjab has a rich cultural heritage known for dignity, respect for women, and high moral values. Unfortunately, in the garb of entertainment, the above-mentioned song maligns Punjabi music, insults Punjabi identity, and deeply hurts the sentiments of Punjabis. The video depicts foreign women in highly objectionable attire, bordering on n*dity, which has never been part of Punjabi music tradition."
Sharma further alleges, "The song is freely accessible on YouTube without any effective age restriction. Such obscene content has a dangerous psychological and moral impact on children and adolescents, encouraging vulgarity and corrupting young minds. This is a matter of serious public concern."
