India, March 15 -- T he Haryana State Commission for Women on Friday issued a directive to arrest rapper Badshah after he failed to appear before the panel by the deadline. This comes in connection with allegedly objectionable lyrics and visuals in his recently released Haryanvi music video, Tateeree. Chairperson Renu Bhatia had earlier warned of strict action. Badshah was asked to appear in Panipat by 3 PM on Friday following a notice issued on March 6. Speaking to reporters, Bhatia said she had directed that his passport be seized and ordered his arrest, stating: "I have ordered SP Panipat to get Badshah arrested from anywhere, any place and issue search orders." The chairperson added that the song had "insulted Haryana daughters with inappropriate words and language" and that FIRs have been registered in Panchkula and Jind. She also wrote to the National Commission for Women (NCW) requesting that no Badshah shows be held in the country. A lawyer representing Badshah claimed they had brought an authority letter and sought more time, saying the rapper had not received the summons. "Under the law, everyone has the right to present their side. But here that is not being given," the lawyer said. Tateeree sparked backlash after its release for its lyrics and visuals. Badshah later apologised on Instagram and announced that the song would be removed. HTC...
