'Empuran' should be banned; Petition filed in High Court for film that promotes religious hatred

Petition in the High Court against the movie ‘Empuran’. The petition has been filed by Thrissur BJP district committee member Vijesh. The demand is to stop the screening of the movie. The petition states that the movie displays anti-nationalism and promotes religious hatred.

This movie portrays the country’s investigative agencies in a distorted manner. The allegations are that it portrays the Union Ministry of Defense in a bad light, paves the way for religious rivalry, misrepresents the Godhra riots, and distorts history. In this situation, it can lead to increased riots and religious hatred among people, so the petition states that the movie should be banned.
