Overview
- Yograj Singh was booked at Chandigarh’s Sector 36 police station Thursday under Section 79 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita and an Information Technology Act provision, and police said an investigation is underway.
- Section 79 covers acts intended to insult the modesty of a woman, and reports cite IT Act Section 62A or 67A as the digital content provision used in the FIR.
- Advocate Ujjwal Bhasin’s complaint centers on a roughly 17‑second clip from Amazon Prime Video’s Lukkhe that he says includes abusive remarks aimed at working women.
- The Punjab State Women Commission issued a notice to Singh and asked for an inquiry through a senior Punjab Police officer after the video circulated online.
- Bhasin also objected to actors wearing a Chandigarh Police uniform and the use of the name “Gurbani,” urged that streaming be stopped, and said he may go to court if no action follows, while neither Singh nor the show’s makers have responded publicly.
