Decision Whether to Ban SRK from Wankhede Next Week


Mumbai, May 17 (IANS): Calling actor Shah Rukh Khan's alleged misbehaviour with security personnel at Wankhede Stadium Wednesday night "a grave matter", union minister and President of Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) Vilasrao Deshmukh Thursday said a decision whether to ban Khan's entry into the stadium would be taken by next week.

"This is a grave matter. I have called for an urgent committee meeting and we shall discuss the matter following which we will decide future course of action," Deshmukh told IANS.

Khan, the co-owner of Indian Premier League (IPl) team Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), faces a lifetime ban from entering the stad­ium after he reportedly misbehaved with security personnel and MCA officials there.

"The decision on the same will be taken only after the meeting of all members from the managing committee of MCA next week," MCA Joint Secretary Nitin Dalal told IANS.

He said it was an unfortunate incident and uncalled for.

Khan allegedly misbehaved and pushed the security guard at the stadium, following which he also abused MCA officials when they tried to intervene late Wednesday night.

"He pushed the security guard and misbehaved with him. He also used bad language with security officials at the stadium and when we tried to intervene, he yelled out expletives at us," MCA Treasurer Ravi Sawant told reporters Thursday.

Following the incident, MCA officials registered a complaint at the Marine Drive police station.

    After muslims what next will you ask sikhs to revmoe their turbans and shave their faces? Will the school force brahmin boys to revmoe their janivaras and only then will they be allowed to attend school/colleges?

    We are not French or the Taliban where other faiths are not tolerated. We are Indians!!! We embrace all religions and their rules no matter who they are. We had Hindu, Muslim, Sikhs and Jains who died to give you this freedom. They would be rolling in their graves if they saw this India where a girl is not allowed to study because of her beliefs.

    Whether Burkhas are Islamic or not, nobody has the right to tell an INDIAN what she can or cannot choose to believe. As an Indian, it is her birthright to choose her beliefs and follow them the way she wants to. Everyone goes to college to study so that they get jobs. As long as the dress they wear are conservative and do not in anyway disrupt or distract the class, it should be allowed.

    Now how is a fully covered girl who only shows her face distracting or disturbing?As far as dhoti and angavastra and a turban are concerned well there are colleges which allow that. They call that day "Culture Day". But in lots of colleges people who go to sabrimalai are allowed to wear malay as well. So why not allow a girl to wear burqa.

    The point is no one in India can force anyone to withdraw their beliefs. And as Home minister of our state it is your duty to see that no one's freedom of religion is hurt. I am a Kannadiga Hindu Brahmin and I am ashammed of this happening in Karnataka. We were never ever this fascists till 2 years ago. Now we have Sri Ram Sene and this and hindus beating christians. We have not left anyone. And well as a Hindu I believe in the law of Karma "Do bad things and bad thins will happen. Do good thins and good things will happen."

    Banning Shah Rukh Khan from Wankhede Stadium is the best remedy as he will know how to respect indivuduals. Security personnel are also human beings and they did what they did what they were supposed to do. He had no right to right to abuse, curse and use filthy language. He has lost his respect in this kind of behavior.

    Sharukh Khan should be banned to entry at all staudiums of India. Law is applicable to every citizen of INDIA. He should learn to respect the individual.
