Guwahati, February 11, 2025 — Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma has announced that the Guwahati Police have registered a First Information Report (FIR) against popular YouTubers Ashish Chanchlani and Ranveer Allahbadia, among others, for allegedly promoting obscenity on the show “India’s Got Latent.”
The Chief Minister’s statement comes amid growing concerns over the content shared on digital platforms and its impact on societal norms. The specific allegations pertain to content deemed inappropriate and offensive, leading to the legal action initiated by the state authorities.
This development has sparked a broader debate on the regulation of online content and the responsibilities of digital creators. While supporters of the action argue the necessity of maintaining cultural and moral standards, critics raise concerns about potential overreach and the implications for creative freedom.
As the investigation progresses, it remains to be seen how this case will influence the landscape of digital content creation and regulation in India. The outcome could set significant precedents for the balance between creative expression and societal norms in the digital age.
