In a fresh development in the ongoing controversy surrounding stand-up comedian Kunal Kamra, the Mumbai Police have denied his request for an extension to appear before authorities. Kamra had sought a week's time, but his appeal was rejected.

According to ANI, Kamra’s lawyer personally submitted the appeal and the response at Khar Police Station. However, the authorities have declined his request for additional time. The Khar Police are set to issue a second summons to Kamra today under Section 35 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS).
