[rti4empowerment] Info about Munni Giri and Sheila Giri

 

Friends,

My wife Dr Nutan Thakur has filed a PIL in Allahabad High Court to ban the two songs "Munni" and "Sheila" and has asked for other reliefs like not allowing such vulgar songs in the names of individuals who are harassed by such songs. The hearing is on 3rd January.

Meanwhile, we have come to know of a incidence related with Pune, the relevant part of which I quote here----


Sheila Giri and Munni Giri these days don't even step out of their houses for fear of being harassed by neighbours with 'Munni' and 'Sheila' barbs. The fact that they are siblings only provides mischief-mongers so much more scope.

On Thursday, the sisters – Sheila, a resident of Naupada, Thane (west); and Munni, a resident of Kopri, Thane (east) –  filed independent applications at the Government Gazette Office seeking change of name. Munni, 35, wants her name changed to Seema; and Sheila, 27, wants to be called Sheetal. Both will soon issue mandatory advertisements to change names.

Could it be possible for someone to present some more factual information and official data on these two cases?
