Reportedly an FIR has been filed against the 49 celebrities who wrote an open letter to Prime Minister narendra modi in July 2019, expressing concern over the rising incidence of communal violence in the country. According to report, the FIR has been filed under various sections of the Indian Penal Code including sedition, public nuisance, hurting religious feelings and insulting with intent to provoke breach of peace.

Furthermore an inspector at Sadar police station in Muzzafarpur, Bihar, confirmed to TNM that the FIR has been filed on Wednesday. Meanwhile this happened after an order to the effect was passed on August 20 by Chief Judicial Magistrate Surya Kant Tiwari in regard to a petition by the advocate Sudhir Ojha. Apparently Advocate Sudhir told that the artists who had signed the open letter were all named as accused in the petition because they allegedly "tarnished the image of the country and undermined the impressive performance of the Prime Minister" besides "supporting secessionist tendencies".



Moreover the letter had stated that “Jai shri Ram” had become a provocative war cry, and had appealed to Prime Minister modi to stop the use of Ram in this manner. Perhaps in response to this, 62 personalities from film, academia and other fields wrote a counter letter, which stated that the 49 signatories of the previous letter showed "selective concern and demonstrated a clear political bias and motive” and was an “attempt to foist a FALSE NARRATIVE”.
