Sanga made the remarks through a video uploaded on X in which he appeared very animated. Emphasizing the need to take action against Allahbadia, Saurav Gurjar tagged the likes of the Prime Minister's Office, Home Minister Amit Shah, Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, his deputy Eknath Shinde and Maharashtra Director General of Police amongst others.
Affirming that BeerBiceps can't be let go because he apologised, the former WWE superstar said in Hindi, "If we do not take action against him for his behavior, then more people like him will say similar things. People like him have crossed all the limit. We should take legal action against people like him who are spoiling our society and religion by saying such things, so that the next generation can be saved. The kind of things he has said, I demand the government to take strict action against him. I am very angry right now. I don't want to use foul language. If I meet him anywhere, no one can save him from me for what he said on the show."

'India's Got Latent' row: The story so far
Teams of Mumbai and Assam police on Friday visited the residence of podcaster Ranveer Allahbadia here as part of a probe into his controversial remarks made on a YouTube show, but found his flat locked, an official said. Crass remarks by Allahbadia about parents and sex on comedian Samay Raina's now-deleted YouTube show 'India's Got Latent' have sparked massive outrage, leading to complaints from several persons.
"The Mumbai police, who have initiated an inquiry in connection with Ranveer Allahbadia's controversial remarks, on Friday went to his flat in Versova area, but found it locked," an official said. Allahbadia had been asked to remain present at the Khar police station here on Thursday in connection with the probe into his controversial comments. But after he failed to appear, the police issued a second summons, asking him to appear on Friday, he said.
Beer Biceps had requested the Khar police that his statement be recorded at his residence, but his request was turned down, he added. Meanwhile, an Assam police team also wants to question Allahbadia in a case registered in Guwahati on a complaint by a resident there for alleged promotion of obscenity in a publicly accessible online show, he was quoted as saying by news agency PTI.
