Sajjanar warns over Ganesh songs 'BRS calls it Hitler rule'

With Ganesh immersions in full swing, the Hyderabad City Police Commissioner, VC Sajjanar, has warned that strict action will be taken against those playing vulgar and provocative songs.

He was speaking at a press conference on Wednesday, September 23, to announce the security arrangements for Ganesh immersions. Responding to a reporter asking how the police would control political songs played during processions, Sajjanar said their social media teams are constantly monitoring such reels and that strict action will be taken against those responsible after the festivities



end.

His reply comes as videos circulate online showing police officers allegedly stopping processions for playing songs associated with Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) supremo and former chief minister K Chandrashekar Rao.

BRS leaders took a strong exception to the CP’s warning, with party spokesperson Manne Krishank calling it a ‘Hitler rule’.

BRS general secretary RS Praveen Kumar said that the police cannot stop the emotion of the masses and asked if anyone had stopped people from playing Chief Minister Revanth Reddy’s songs.
