Pratima Kumari, a Congress Legislator, moved the motion by stating that the vulgarity and aggressive caste implications in Bhojpuri songs are a significant topic of concern.
“We have nothing against promoting art and culture, but these songs with multiple meanings frequently cause societal upheaval. The government must punish individuals who create such tunes severely “She spoke.
She added that it has been observed that local police do not take action against those who engage in the creation of such songs.
