Sir,
The applicant, Satinder Singh, resident of House no-89, Sector-28-A Chandigarh, being citizen of Bharat wants to bring the following facts to your kind notice:
1 The applicant has seen the picture of Mahatma Gandhi in the local edition of the Newspaper Hindustan Times on 1.10.2010 A.D under the title City resident Sunil Sharma, dressed up as Ravana taking American Gandhi Bernie Meyer for a ride during International Peace festival in which the father of the nation Mahatma Gandhi was not presented in a good manner rather the perusal of the picture gives the impression as there was going some drama in which Mahatma Gandhi ,father of the nation was made a laughing stock. The applicant is not able to derive the message given in the picture but arrive at the conclusion that it is cheap method adopted by the artists and the organizers to get the popularity on the name of Father of the Nation by making mockery of the Great legend.
2 The applicant as well as all the nationals regards Mahatma Gandhi irrespective of their thoughts. Moreover, Mahatma Gandhi is an inspiring freedom fighter and was instrumental for the freedom of Bharat. The depiction of Mahatma Gandhi in such a manner during the International Peace Festival at S.D College,Sector-32 ,Chandigarh gave the wrong message and hurts the sentiments of the applicant. The act in the photograph has annoyed the applicant and general public. The said programme was held in the public place at S.D College, Sector-32, Chandigarh. The applicant is annexing the photograph published in the Hindustan Times dated 1.10.10.The applicant think it proper to bring the matter in your kind notice as today they have shown the Mahatma Gandhi tomorrow they will show the other great freedom fighters like Bhagat Singh ,Rajguru, Subash Chander Bose in bad taste.
It is therefore requested to take strict action against the organizers, artists and other concerned persons in view of the facts and circumstances stated above.
