Kunal Kamra, a comedian known for his political commentary, has ignited another firestorm with a recent social media post. The image in question depicts Kamra wearing a T-shirt that seems to satirize the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), the ideological fount of the ruling BJP. In response, the BJP has issued stern warnings, with Maharashtra Minister Chandrashekhar Bawankule vowing swift police action against any dissemination of ‘objectionable’ material. BJP leaders have labeled Kamra’s post as highly disrespectful. This latest controversy places Kamra, who has often used his platform for sharp political critique, at odds with powerful political entities, reigniting debates surrounding freedom of expression and the role of satire in public discourse.
