Police in India’s capital have refused permission for a concert by the singer Diljit Dosanjh on October 30.

The show was due to open the singer’s India tour.

Police cited security concerns and the festive season.

No new date or venue has been announced.

The organisers had not commented.

The organisers had not announced a revised date or an alternative venue when the reports were published.

ETV Bharat says it is unclear whether the organisers will seek an alternative arrangement for Delhi.

The reports reviewed carried no response from Diljit Dosanjh or from BookMyShow.

The reports did not give ticket or refund information for the Delhi show.

The reported schedule of the Aura India Tour includes Indore, Ahmedabad, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Lucknow, Chandigarh and Kolkata, according to ETV Bharat.

Diljit Dosanjh spoke on September 24 about a planned performance at Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on November 21, according to the same report.

The effect of the denial on the wider tour schedule has not been announced, according to ETV Bharat.

Large public events in Delhi need permissions from the police and other agencies, including for crowd management, traffic and security arrangements.

A no-objection certificate from the police is a clearance that is usually issued with conditions on timing, security and crowd management.

The police reasons are those stated in the reports and no formal written order was quoted in full in the articles reviewed.

Ticket holders should wait for official communication from the organisers and the ticketing platform.

Delhi Police have denied permission for Diljit Dosanjh’s concert at Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium on October 30, 2026, according to ETV Bharat and Aryan Age, in reports published on October 22.

The concert was expected to open the singer’s Aura India Tour, according to ETV Bharat.

The Office of the Deputy Commissioner of Police, South Delhi, sent a letter to the ticketing platform BookMyShow saying the request could not be approved, according to ETV Bharat.
