A police complaint has been filed against former cricketers Harbhajan Singh, Suresh Raina, Yuvraj Singh, and Gurkeerat Mann for allegedly mocking people with disabilities in an Instagram video. Arman Ali, executive director of NCPEDP, lodged the complaint with the SHO at Amar Colony police station.

The complaint extends to Sandhya Devanathan, VP and MD of Meta India, accusing Instagram of violating the Information Technology Act, 2000, by allowing such content. The police have forwarded the complaint to the district's cyber cell for further investigation.

The video was shared after India's victory over Pakistan in the World Championship of Legends final, featuring the former cricketers limping to show the physical toll of the matches. Disability activists condemned the video, calling it 'totally disgraceful'. Ali urged immediate action and emphasized the need for public figures to be accountable, stating that a simple apology would not suffice.
