Haryana police have filed an FIR against cricketer Yuvraj Singh based on a complaint from a lawyer against his alleged caste remarks against Dalits.
Last year in June, Hansi-based lawyer Rajat Kalsan filed the complaint at the Hansi City Police Station in Hisar District.
Kalsan told The Indian Express that the FIR has filed under sections 153, 153 A, 295, 505 of the IPC and SC / ST law on Sunday.

Kalsan had alleged that Yuvraj, during an Instagram Live with Indian cricketer Rohit Sharma, had made the comment while referring to another player.
“This comment has hurt the feelings of the Dalits as millions of people have seen this video on social media,” Kalsan said in the complaint while urging SP Hansi to file an FIR against Yuvraj and arrest him.
