DEHRADUN: Two individuals have been booked for allegedly making cartoons of Baba Ramdev and making them viral on social media.

A disciple of Baba Ramdev had lodged a case towards a cartoonist and a reporter at Kankhal police station in Haridwar, accusing them of constructing and circulating obscene cartoons. The police have registered a case and began an investigation. 

The Cartoon in query was primarily based on the controversial tune ‘Besharam Rang’ from Siddharth Anand’s upcoming movie ‘Pathaan’ that includes actors Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone.

The cartoon reportedly depicts Ramdev carrying saffron underwear and is seen hugging Prime Minister Narendra Modi in a pose just like the one that includes Shah Rukh and Deepika from the music video. 

Raman Panwar, a resident of Kankhal, had alleged in his grievance to the inspector Mukesh Chauhan {that a} cartoonist named Hemant Malviya had “hurt the sentiments” of yoga guru Baba Ramdev by making “objectionable” and “derogatory” cartoons.

In his grievance, Pawar accused the duo had been accused of “tarnishing” the picture of the yoga guru by making indecent and obscene posters of him and making them viral on social media.

They had been booked underneath part 153A of the IPC on the cost of inciting non secular sentiments. SSP City Swatantra Kumar Singh mentioned a case has been registered and an investigation is underway.
