Chandigarh: Music composer Vishal Dadlani on Wednesday met Jain monk Tarun Sagar at his ashram in Chandigarh on Wednesday to deliver his latest apology.

The Haryana Police had earlier booked Dadlani for his tweets against the monk. Tarun Sagar had addressed the Haryana assembly where he spoke about dharma and politics, terrorism and female foeticide. Dadlani then took to Twitter, mocking the Jain leader, terming his address as ‘Monkery of Democracy.”

Dadlani recently also put out an open letter addressed to Tarun Sagar and Jains. “As a concerned Indian, I should have been especially careful to be sensitive to the sentiments of followers of Muni Tarun Sagar ji. Especially after receiving his forgiveness, I realise what a magnanimous and generous heart he has, and what strength lies within the gentleness of the Jain people,” he wrote.

He described the monk as “gentle and kind” and said he was “hurt and disappointed” with himself and his ego. “It is that same ego that I hope to defeat, with your help. I apologise again, from the depths of my heart, and ask that Muni-ji and all my Jain brothers and sisters, forgive me,” Dadlani said in his letter.
