MNS seeks ban on Mika Singh over singer's participation in Pakistan Independence Day event
Maharashtra Navnirman Sena has now written a letter to Devendra Fadnavis seeking a ban on singer Mika Singh.
A day after Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) leader Amey Khopkar threatened Bollywood singer Mika Singh for performing in Chicago and Houston on Pakistan's Independence Day, the party has approached Maharashtra chief minister Devendra Fadnavis.
The party has written a letter to Devendra Fadnavis seeking a ban on Mika Singh.
In an two page letter MNS leader Ameya Khopkar writes to CM that "Mika Singh is going to perform for Pakistan Independence Day celebration in USA on August 14. The revenue which will get generated by this event may get used for terror activities against India."
"Participation of Indian artist in such program is nothing but seditious activity. Mika is going to sing Pakistani patriotic songs despite knowing the current tension between India and Pakistan. We condemn this act of Mika Singh. We request you to not only ban his future performances in Maharahstra but also request you to escalate this matter with the MHA and ask Home minister to cancel his visit to USA," Khopkar added.
The MNS also organised protest against Mika Singh in Mumbai and burnt down effigies in various parts of the city. Police detained few MNS workers in Dadar area of Mumbai.
