PANAJI: Amid nationwide backlash and police action against Youtuber Ranveer Allahbadia aka BeerBiceps, Goa Tourism Minister Rohan Khaunte equated him to a rot destroying the country’s social fabric.
Allahbadia and the makers of the show India's Got Latent – a platform where vulgar remarks created an outrage, are facing multiple police complaints and notices from women and human rights panels.
“The ‘likes’ of Ranveer Allahbadia are the Rot that’s eating into our Social Fabric & degrading the Moral Values of an Entire Generation in the name of Creative Freedom when all they create is Perverted Trash,” Khaunte posted on his X handle.
Allahbadia’s highly inappropriate question on the show and the remarks, also supported by others on the panel, has now been pulled down by Youtube.
Earlier, the Mumbai Police visited Allahbadia’s residence following a complaint filed on Monday. Besides, the Assam Police has also registered an FIR against him.
Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis has assured action would be taken against him. Meanwhile, a parliamentary panel is considering summoning Allahbadia to discuss the matter.
