NEW DELHI: Maharashtra BJP MLC Chitra Wagh demanded an immediate ban on actor Ajaz Khan’s web show House Arrest, alleging that its content is obscene and harmful to society, especially children. She also urged Union Information and Broadcasting minister Ashwini Vaishnaw to take strict action against mobile applications promoting such content.
“Ajaz Khan, who calls himself an actor, has created a show called House Arrest, which is nothing but the epitome of obscenity. Clips from this show, streamed on the Ullu app, are now circulating freely on social media, and they are extremely vulgar,” Wagh said.
Raising concerns about the impact of such shows on younger audiences, the legislator noted, “Such content is now easily accessible on mobile phones of children. These kinds of programmes not only insult our culture, but also degrade the moral health of society. This is a perverse attack on the minds of the next generation.”
She said creators are misusing the idea of freedom of expression to push vulgar content. “In the name of freedom of expression, we must stop giving a free hand to obscenity. House Arrest is not merely content—it is an assault on the values of society,” she said.
Calling for regulatory intervention, Wagh added, “I appeal to Information and Broadcasting Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw to immediately ban all apps that create and distribute such content. This show must be taken down without delay.”
She asserted that urgent steps are needed to protect the cultural and psychological well-being of society. “This is not entertainment; it is a threat to our future,” she said.
