Delhi Police cites security threats and festive-season duties
In a letter addressed to BookMyShow, according to a Hindustan Times report, the Office of the Deputy Commissioner of Police, South District, said the organisers’ request had been examined before the decision was taken.
The letter referred to the application dated October 14, 2026, seeking permission to hold Diljit Dosanjh’s Aura India Tour Delhi at Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium on October 30.
Explaining the decision, the police wrote, “In view of the specific threat-related inputs, coupled with the multifarious security and law & order commitments arising out of the ongoing festive season and other important law & order concerns, the same cannot be acceded to.”
Diljit had already warned fans about online scams
The security setback comes after Dosanjh issued a warning to fans about fake social media accounts claiming to recruit volunteers for the Delhi concert.
In an Instagram message, the singer clarified that his team was not looking for volunteers for the October 30 show. He also cautioned fans against sharing personal information with suspicious accounts.
“We are not asking anyone to volunteer, so please don’t share your information,” Dosanjh said.
He warned that third-party accounts could collect fans’ personal details and sell the data elsewhere. Highlighting the risks of sharing information online, the singer added, “Data is the biggest thing today… This was important to say because a lot of people get scammed.”
Aura India Tour was set to follow Dil-Luminati success
Following the massive response to his Dil-Luminati Tour, Dosanjh was preparing to return to Indian stages with the Aura India Tour.
The tour was scheduled to open in Delhi on October 30 before moving to other major cities, including Indore, Ahmedabad, Mumbai, Bengaluru and Lucknow.
