High Court tells Punjab to not take action against Bharti Singh

MUMBAI: The Punjab and Haryana High Court asked the Punjab government not to take any action against comedian, Bharti Singh in a case related to hurting the religious sentiments.

HC has also issued notice to the Punjab government and the complainant in the case asking them to file their replies on the petition filed by Bharti Singh.
The case would now come up for hearing on March 25 along with the previous petitions filed on the same issue by director-choreographer Farah Khan, and Bollywood actor, Raveena Tandon.

On December 25,2019, Bharti and both the other celebrities were booked by Ajnala police under section 295-A of IPC for deliberate and malicious acts intended to outrage religious feelings of any class by insulting its religion or religious beliefs. They had allegedly made some comments about ‘Bible’. The FIR was registered on the complaint filed by Sona Masih alias Sonu Jaffar. The allegations against Bharti are that in a web-show, she made a joke of the word 'Hallelujah'.
