New Delhi: The Delhi government on Friday formally invited Pakistani Ghazal singer Ghulam Ali to perform in the capital. Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal took to twitter to announce that Ghulam Ali will be performing in Delhi in December.
"Ghulam Ali Sahib. Hum apke bahut bade fan hain. Abhi apse baat karke bahut acha laga. (We are huge fan of yours. We feel privileged to have spoken to you.)Thanks for agreeing to do a program in Delhi in December", Kejriwal tweeted.

The ghazal singer also confirmed his performance in December.
This announcement comes just days after Shiv Sena objected to his concert in Mumbai which led to the event being called off. BSP Chief Mayawati said that if she comes to power in UP, she will ensure that Muslim singers from all across the world come to India to perform and promote secularism. West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee also expressed her willingness to hold a concert of Ghulam Ali in Kolkata.
The Shiv Sena however, hit out at these parties accusing them of playing appeasement politics.
