The Enforcement Directorate (ED) recently issued summons to Pakistani singer Rahat Fateh Ali Khan in connection with an alleged forex violations case of 2011. The agency has initiated a probe under the Foreign Exchange Management Act (FEMA) sometime back against the singer and his associates, and has now issued summons against him to appear before investigators at the agency’s Delhi zonal office. Khan was intercepted at Indira Gandhi International Airport (IGIA) in 2011 for allegedly carrying an undeclared USD 1.24 lakh and some other instruments. Seeking a ban Taking offence to the alleged misrepresentation of ancient Sun Temple in Kashmir in Vishal Bharadwaj’s movie Haider, a committee of displaced Kashmiri Pandits has sought a ban on the film. The song Bismil has portrayed the ancient Martand Temple as the den of devil. The committee held a protest against the film and its producers in Jammu and burnt the film’s poster which included photographs of its director Vishal Bhardwaj, Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) and Archaeological Survey of India (ASI).
