New Delhi: The West Bengal government has filed an affidavit in the Supreme Court on the Kerala story issue. The West Bengal government says the film has manipulated facts apart from hate speech. Due to which communal disharmony and law and order issue may arise in the state. The information was given by the intelligence system of the state.
The West Bengal government has defended its ban on the screening of the film The Kerala Story, saying the screening of the film is likely to lead to clashes between extremist groups. In order to prevent any incident of hatred and violence in such a situation, it was decided to ban the controversial film in the state. The state government says the ban on the film is a policy decision based on intelligence. The ban has not violated the fundamental rights of the petitioners and the pecuniary loss suffered by the petitioners cannot be termed as violation of fundamental rights.
In this case, the Tamil Nadu government has filed an affidavit in the Supreme Court and said that the state government has not imposed any ban on the release of the film The Kerala Story. The contention given by the filmmaker regarding the condition like ban on showing the film in the state is wrong. The Tamil Nadu government says that the film was released in 19 multiplexes on May 5, but theater owners themselves decided to stop screening the film due to lack of audience. Adequate security arrangements were made to screen the film in all the cinema halls of the state. For this, the Director General of Police has instructed all the State Commissioners of Police and District Superintendents of Police to provide adequate security to all cinema halls showing the film and to the people coming to watch the film. More than 965 policemen were deployed in the state for this. Also, 21 DSPs were deployed for the security of 21 theatres. The State Government submits that the petitioners have made false and misleading allegations against the Government of Tamil Nadu motivated by malicious intent and seeking publicity. The Tamil Nadu government has said that the producer has tried to take undue advantage by filing a petition in the Supreme Court. Therefore, the petition of the filmmaker should be rejected.
The producer of the film has also petitioned the Supreme Court against the ban on Kerala Story in West Bengal and Tamil Nadu. While hearing the petition on May 12, notices were issued to the governments of West Bengal and Tamil Nadu. During the hearing, the court asked the West Bengal and Tamil Nadu governments that when the film is playing all over the country, why is it being stopped in your state.
