Delhi Police Denies Permission for Diljit Dosanjh's October 30 Delhi Concert Over Security ConcernsPreviousNext

Delhi Police has denied permission for Punjabi singer Diljit Dosanjh's concert scheduled on October 30 at Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium, citing security concerns, threat-related inputs, and law-and-order challenges during the festive season. The decision affects the opening of Dosanjh's Aura India Tour, which includes shows in multiple cities. While authorities have not disclosed specific threats, some reports mention alleged threats from separatist groups. Organisers and the singer's team have yet to confirm the concert's status or any rescheduling plans.
