Kunal Kamra Questions Mumbai Police on Protection for Upcoming Shows
Comedian Kunal Kamra questioned Mumbai Police on social media about when he can perform in the city and whether the police would protect his shows from disruptions by hecklers. Kamra emphasized that his performances would be peaceful and lawful, held indoors with consenting audiences. Mumbai Police responded that no formal complaint or protection request has been made by Kamra, and that police protection requires a written application, not social media posts. They also noted that indoor shows do not require police permission and that all requests are handled equally.
