FIR filed against 'India's Got Latent' contestant Jessy Nabam over controversial remarks
Mumbai: An FIR has been lodged against comedian Samay Raina’s YouTube show India's Got Latent following controversial remarks made by contestant Jessy Nabam, a resident of Arunachal Pradesh. During a recent episode, Samay Raina asked Jessy if she had ever eaten dog meat, to which she responded that she had not, but claimed that people from Arunachal Pradesh do.
She further added, "I know because my friends eat it. They even eat their pets at times." Although the panel, which included comedian Balraj Singh Ghai, took the comment in stride, Jessy stood by her statement, insisting that it was true.
The incident quickly went viral after videos surfaced on social media, drawing widespread backlash for her remarks. In response, an FIR was filed by Armaan Ram Welly Bakha, a resident of East Kameng District in Arunachal Pradesh, accusing Jessy of making derogatory comments about the state’s indigenous people.
The FIR, dated January 31, 2025, was submitted to the officer in charge of the Itanagar Police Station, with the complaint urging prompt action to prevent similar incidents in the future. Neither Samay Raina nor any of the other panelists have publicly responded to the FIR.
