NEW DELHI: Maharashtra minister Raghunath Patil has threatened Kunal Kamra saying that Shiv Sena (Shinde faction) would “will show its real form” if the comedian fails to issue an apology. This came after the Sena took offence to a joke by Kamra that referred to Shinde as “gaddar”.
“If he doesn’t apologise, we will speak to him in our own style…Shiv Sena won’t leave him…we won’t tolerate this insult…if he doesn’t apologise, he will come out, where will he hide?…Shiv Sena will show its real form,” he said.
Congress MLA Vijay Wadettiwar expressed his support for Kamra and said that his decision to not apologise was correct.
“If anything is wrong, then they should go to the court. Vandalism and suppressing anyone’s voice is not right. A government should be able to take criticism. If someone has done a comedy for laughter, then the government should have laughed it off… Kangana Ranaut said even more derogatory words about your leaders, then it was called freedom of speech… Kunal Kamra’s decision not to apologise is right… He has not taken anyone’s name… No one is respecting the law… Such a government cannot last long. One or the other day, people would be enraged, and the government would have to pay…” the Congress MLA told reporters.
Earlier, Kamra refused to apologise and said that he did not “fear this mob”.
“I will not apologise. What I said is exactly what Mr. Ajit Pawar (1st deputy CM) said about Mr. Eknath Shinde (2nd deputy CM). I don’t fear this mob & I will not be hiding under my bed, waiting for this to die down,” he had said.
