Huge relief for Salman Khan in Valmiki case as SC stays proceeding against him

The Supreme Court has stayed the proceedings in six cases against Salman Khan, filed in different courts across the country. The court will not hear if the FIR will be quashed or not. The cases were filed against Salman Khan for allegedly demeaning the Valmiki Samaj.

The court has now given a new date for the hearing, i.e. April 23. The commission issued the notice after an ex-chairman of the Delhi Commission for Safai Karamcharis, Harnam Singh filed a complaint in this regard.

Singh, in his complaint, said that the actor used the word 'bhangi' during TV shows "which clearly insults the entire Valmiki community of the world." Salman had used the word during the promotion of his film 'Tiger Zinda Hai' at a reality dance show. 

Meanwhile, Salman Khan was recently spotted leaving for Kashmir. His Race 3 co-star Jacqueline Fernandez too left for Kashmir. Reportedly, the duo will be shooting the final song of Race 3 there.
