An FIR has been lodged against Tanisha Kuppanda, a contestant in the Bigg Boss Kannada season 10, under the Scheduled Caste and Scheduled Tribe (SC/ST) Atrocities Act.
P. Padma, the state president of Akhil Karnataka Bhovi Samaj, filed the complaint at Kumbalagodu Police Station on the outskirts of Bangalore, alleging the use of derogatory language by Tanisha towards the Bhovi community.
The accusations stem from a recent conversation between Tanisha Kuppanda and fellow contestant Drone Pratap on the reality show where the former called him 'Vadda'. Tanisha's comments during the exchange have been deemed disparaging towards the Bhovi community, which falls under the Scheduled Caste and Scheduled Tribe category. This has ignited outrage among the Bhovi community, with calls for immediate action against the actress.
The incident has caught the attention of the Vaddar community, who allege a deliberate insult and are demanding swift and decisive action against Tanisha Kuppanda, considering the Scheduled Caste status of the Bhovi community. The FIR filed under the SC/ST Atrocities Act intensifies the legal implications surrounding the case.
Tanisha Kuppanda, known for her roles in the Kannada film industry, now faces the possibility of eviction from the Bigg Boss house. The controversy has prompted widespread demands for her immediate expulsion from the reality show, emphasizing the need to preserve the honor of the Bhovi (Vaddar) community.
The Karnataka Bhovi Samaj has been vocal in its condemnation of Tanisha's alleged remarks, calling for her prompt arrest and legal proceedings. The community insists that this incident not only tarnishes the reputation of the individual but also reflects negatively on the cultural and social values associated with the Bhovi community.
As the controversy unfolds, it remains to be seen how the makers of Bigg Boss Kannada and the legal authorities will respond to the situation.
