‘You’re not even able to speak’: Minister scolds ‘drunk’ Daler Mehndi on stage

Daler Mehndi’s performance at the Kunjapuri Fair in Narendra Nagar was criticized due to his apparent intoxication. Minister Subodh Uniyal confronted Mehndi on stage, expressing disappointment over his inability to sing clearly. Organisers explained that Mehndi had performed despite feeling unwell and was a last-minute replacement for another artist. The event, part of a sacred navratri festival, ended without Mehndi’s usual vibrant performance.
