Punjabi singer Diljit Dosanjh has been instructed to exclude four of his songs from his upcoming concert in Indore on November 15, due to concerns over their content. The District Child Protection Officer issued the directive following a complaint by Chandigarh-based Dr. Panditrao Dharenavar, who objected to songs promoting alcohol, drugs, and violence. The songs in question are 'Patiala Peg', '5 Tara Theke', 'Jeb Vicho Feem', and 'Jatt Fire Karda'. The decision cites a July 2019 order from the Punjab and Haryana High Court, which mandates that songs glorifying liquor, drugs, and violence should not be played, especially in the presence of children. The concert venue has been instructed to ensure these songs are not performed. Despite these restrictions, Dosanjh has confirmed that the concert will proceed as planned. The event has also faced security concerns, with bomb threat emails sent to local schools and the mayor's office, though no explosives have been found.
