Uttarakhand CM Holds Talks With Mika Singh to Resolve Daler Mehndi Event Controversy

The Uttarakhand government has suggested resolving the controversy surrounding singer Daler Mehndi's recent event through face-to-face discussions. Uttarakhand Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami spoke over the phone with Daler Mehndi's brother, singer Mika Singh, urging both sides to address any differences calmly and with mutual respect.

The issue arose during the Navratri celebrations at the Siddhapeeth Maa Kunjapuri Mela in Narendra Nagar, Tehri Garhwal district. A public dispute took place between Uttarakhand Cabinet Minister Subodh Uniyal and Daler Mehndi during the performance, making the incident a major talking point locally.

Responding to the matter, CM Dhami stated that Uttarakhand, known as 'Devbhoomi', always follows the principle of 'Atithi Devo Bhava' and respects art and artists. The state government emphasized ending the issue amicably through direct talks, and a suitable decision is expected soon.
