Gurugram: Members of Rajput Karni Sena on Saturday launched a fresh protest against Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s ‘Padmavati’ on Saturday.
In Haryana’s Gurugram, the Karni Sena workers protested outside the deputy commissioners’ office against the release of the movie.
“Have submitted a memorandum to deputy commissioner to ban ‘Padmavati’ in Haryana. We want a 100 percent ban and not a conditional ban on the movie,” Karni Sena President Mahipal Singh Makrana said in Gurugram today.
