“The makers have been waiting for censor clearance for the last six months,” informs a supply from the trade. “RSVP applied for the censor certificate in December 2022, and it was sent ahead to the review committee. The team shared all the necessary paperwork that was requested and went about the process with complete diligence, but with no solution forthcoming from the CBFC, they finally moved the Bombay High Court on Wednesday (June 14),” the supply added.
Jaswant Singh Khalra was the director of a financial institution in Amritsar throughout the militancy interval in Punjab who discovered proof of abduction, elimination and cremation of hundreds of unidentified our bodies by the police. They reportedly even killed 2000 of their very own officers who refused to collaborate in these additional judicial operations. Khalra’s investigation sparked worldwide protests and led to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) concluding that the Punjab police had unlawfully cremated 2097 individuals within the Tarn Taran district of Punjab alone.
The Supreme Court of India and the National Human Rights Commission have licensed the validity of his information.
On September 6, 1995, Khalra himself disappeared. A case of homicide, abduction and felony conspiracy was registered on the grievance of his spouse, Paramjit Kaur. Taking sturdy word of the heinous crime dedicated by 4 law enforcement officials in eliminating human rights activist Jaswant Singh Khalra, energetic in bringing to gentle additional-judicial killings within the districts of Tarn Taran and Amritsar, the Punjab and Haryana Court, on October 16, 2007, enhanced the sentences of the 4 accused, former head constable Prithipal Singh and former sub-inspectors Satnam Singh, Surinder Pal Singh and Jasbir Singh from seven years to life imprisonment.
“The Jaswant Singh Khalra case is back in court, this time for a censor certificate. It will come up for hearing on July 4 and Ameet Naik, heads the Khalra biopic legal team,” provides the supply.
Incidentally, the 2016 crime drama was written and directed by Abhishek Chaubey. The Revising Committee of the Censor Board had requested for 89 cuts and all references to Punjab erased. It was later cleared by the Bombay High Court with only one scene edited out and an ‘A’ certificates.
