In response, Mumbai police have opened an investigation and filed an FIR under Section 351(3) of the Indian Penal Code.

This trend raises alarm about the rising number of threats targeting public figures in India. Furthermore, the involvement of international sources adds a layer of concern about the global nature of these threats.
