FIR lodged against rapper Badshah for ‘vulgar’ lyrics in his latest song ‘Tateeree’ A first information report (FIR) has been filed against rapper Badshah for alleged violations of laws related to indecent representation of women and obscenity, following complaints about the content of his latest song “Tateeree.” The FIR was registered at the cybercrime police station in Panchkula under Sections 3 and 4 of the Indecent Representation of Women (Prohibition) Act, 1986, and Section 296 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, which addresses obscene acts and songs. The case was initiated after a complaint was filed alleging that the song contains offensive lyrics and visuals that send a harmful message to society. The Haryana State Commission for Women has also taken cognizance of the matter and issued a summons to Badshah, demanding he explain the use of such content in his work. Commission chairperson Renu Bhatia stated that the rapper was summoned on March 13 to address the allegations. She emphasized that the song’s lyrics and visuals, which include references to a sacred environment like a school, could have a negative impact on children and youth, potentially encouraging criminal behavior against girls. The complainant argued that the song’s content promotes indecent and obscene material, which violates legal standards. They called for strict legal action against Badshah, citing the need to uphold societal values and protect vulnerable groups. A police officer in Panchkula confirmed that the FIR was registered based on the received complaint and that an investigation is currently underway. The case highlights growing concerns about the portrayal of sensitive topics in popular media and the legal consequences of using such content.#badshah #tateeree #panchkula #haryana_state_commission_for_women #renu_bhatia
