School Cultural Event Triggers Controversy in Uttar Pradesh’s Amroha, Police Launch Inquiry

A student dance performance at Mesco Public School in Uttar Pradesh’s Amroha district has sparked controversy after a video went viral on social media. Muslim organisations objected to the event and filed a complaint, prompting police to begin an investigation into the matter.

 

A cultural programme held at a private school in Uttar Pradesh’s Amroha district has come under scrutiny after a video from the event circulated widely on social media, prompting objections from local Muslim organisations and drawing the attention of law enforcement authorities.

The controversy centres on an event organised at Mesco Public School, where students were seen performing a dance routine to a song from the film Dhurandhar. The video, which has since gone viral online, sparked criticism from several Muslim groups who claimed the performance was objectionable and inappropriate. Following the circulation of the footage, these organisations formally raised concerns and demanded strict action against the school administration.

In response to the complaints, the matter was brought to the attention of the police. Officials confirmed that a formal complaint has been received and that an investigation is currently underway. According to the police, all relevant aspects of the incident are being examined to determine whether any rules or norms were violated during the school programme.

Authorities have stated that the inquiry will involve reviewing the viral video, assessing the nature of the performance, and examining the circumstances under which the event was conducted. No action has been announced so far, and officials have maintained that conclusions will be drawn only after a thorough and impartial investigation.
