Bigg Boss Kannada 12 Back in Action! District Grants 10-Day Permission Amid Environmental Controversy

Bigg Boss Kannada Season 12 has been granted a 10-day temporary permission by the district administration to resume operations after it was shut down over alleged environmental violations on October 7th, as per a report by TOI. The production team of Bigg Boss Kannada had been struggling to continue the show, as the studio was sealed by the authorities.

Bigg Boss Kannada 12 Back in Action! District Grants 10-Day Permission

Controversy Background: Set Sealed Over Environmental Breaches

The Bigg Boss Kannada set, located at Jollywood Studios & Adventures in Bidadi, was sealed by the Karnataka State Pollution Control Board (KSPCB) on October 7th. Officials inspecting the Bigg Boss Kannada set found several serious issues, including untreated sewage being released into the surroundings, a non-functional sewage treatment plant on the premises, poor waste management practices, and the show operating without the required environmental clearances.

After the announcement of the closure order, all contestants were evacuated immediately and sent to a luxury resort, where they remain under strict confinement, as per the report. During this disruption, prerecorded episodes were broadcast to keep the show running on television.
This was a major setback to the production, as Bigg Boss Kannada has a massive popularity in the state.

Temporary Permission Granted

After hearing requests from the show's makers, the district authorities have allowed Bigg Boss Kannada Season 12 to resume for a short period of 10 days. This temporary permission gives the production team time to fix the environmental issues and ensure the studio follows all government rules.

Officials, however, warned that this approval comes with strict conditions. The set will be closely monitored, and if any further violations are found, the permission could be withdrawn immediately, and the studio could be sealed again.

What Lies Ahead for Bigg Boss Kannada 12?

For now, fans can expect the show to return to normal, though production will be under close scrutiny. The next few days will be critical for the team to address the issues and get regulatory clearance. Whether Bigg Boss Kannada Season 12 will continue beyond this 10-day period depends entirely on how quickly the makers implement corrective measures and win back the confidence of the authorities.
