Karnataka Govt officially 'bans' Sunny Leone!

It seems like 2017 is the year where fringe groups have been emerging as victorious. Earlier it was Sunjay Leela Bhansali's 'Padmavati' - the movie which was postponed to unidentified date due to Sri Rajput Karni Sena who demanded a ban. The group felt that the film distorts Rajput history. And now, a pro-Kannada group has managed to win in their fight over Sunny Leone’s event in Bengaluru.
The Karnataka government yesterday decided not to permit Bollywood actress Sunny Leone's New Year's eve show in Bengaluru and elsewhere in the state following protests from Kannada outfits. Karnataka Rakshana Vedike and some other organisations have been opposing the proposed event on December 31 alleging that the invitation to Sunny Leone will be an "assault" on the city's culture.
Karnataka home minister R Ramalinga Reddy confirmed that they have denied permission to this event. He said that there’s a fear of law and order problems and moreover, the decision is in sync with the directions of Karnataka high court in a molestation case reported in Bengaluru last year on New Year’s Eve, which shocked the country.
