Maharashtra Minister Yogesh Kadam on Monday said that the location of stand-up comedian Kunal Kamra, who allegedly made defamatory remarks against Deputy CM Eknath Shinde, was being traced and strict action will be taken in the matter as per the law.

While talking to reporters, the Shiv Sena leader also said law is equal to all and that he does not support the action of his party workers vandalising a studio in Mumbai over Kamra's remarks.

"But one must understand the anger of Shiv Sainiks," the Minister of State for Home said.

"Kamra's location is being traced. Strict action will be taken as per the law. One must understand both sides of the coin," he said.

During his performance at the Habitat Studio in Mumbai's Khar area, Kamra had referred to Shinde as a "traitor" and went on to sing a parody on him.

The comedian used a modified version of a Hindi song from the movie 'Dil Toh Pagal Hai' to describe the 2022 rebellion of the Shiv Sena leader against his then party chief Uddhav Thackeray.
