Words like ‘Khairlanji’, ‘Hindutva’, ‘Ramabai Nagar’, ‘kutra’ (dog) are among the words that Maharashtra’s Censor Board for Theatre has found objectionable in a play, Jai Bhim, Jai Bharat and has asked the playwright to drop them. The board has also said that permission to stage the play should be denied if it fails to make the cuts.
The board has recommended 19 cuts in the play written by Janardan Jadhav which depicts a fictional conversation between Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar and Mahatma Gandhi.
