The Madhya Pradesh High Court, while denying him bail, had then said that promoting harmony is one of the constitutional duties. According to the FIR, the comedy show (in which the alleged remarks were made) was organized on January 1, 2021 at a cafe located in Indore’s 56 Dukan area. Eklavya Singh Gaur, son of Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MLA Malini Laxman Singh Gaur, lodged a complaint against Farooqui and others.
