Singer-music composer Vishal Dadlani has taken to his social media handle to challenge Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath. On Thursday Vishal Dadlani reacted to CM Yogi Adityanath’s remark of refuting claims of Maha Kumbh water having faecal bacteria. When the minister called the Sangam water fit for drinking, Vishal Dadlani, challenged him to have a “chunky glug” from the river in Prayagraj.
It all began with The National Green Tribunal (NGT) releasing a report on February 17 stating water near multiple Maha Kumbh locations have shown high levels of faecal bacteria and total coliform. The report in no time created a nationwide stir, but CM Yogi Adityanath dismissed the same and said the water of the said location was “fit for drinking”.
Reacting to the sale, through an Instagram story, Vishal Dadlani wrote “Don’t worry about the haters, Sir. We believe you. Please go ahead and take a nice chunky glug. directly from the river, on camera.”
Further, in another story, he posted a news report about the NGT report and added, “If you can’t see millions of cases of dysentery, cholera, amoebiosis etc coming right up, you are clearly special. Please go ahead and dunk yourself and your family into sewage. More power to ya.”
Before this, on Wednesday, Vishal took a jibe at Mahakumbh in a completely different manner. While writing a post in support of Samay Raina amid India’s Got Latent controversy, he slammed the legal system for not focusing on other important matters.
His post read – “The government wanted to control online content. They’ve been trying and getting stopped for a long time. Now, in this wave of TV-generated outrage, people are giving away their own freedom. Not to mention… ‘what Kumbh stampede deaths?’ Samjhe?.”
