The Shree Rajput Karni Sena welcomed Censor Board chief Prasoon Joshi's decision to not to attend the Jaipur Literature Festival, saying that possibly the CBFC chief was "repenting for his mistake at how he had hurt the sentiments of Rajputs" over Padmaavat. Vijendra Singh, the spokesperson of the organisation, said, "This comes as good news for us. We are glad that he respected the request of Karni Sena and cancelled his scheduled visit. Realising what he has done, he is attempting to make amends it seems." Singh's response came after the CBFC chief said in a statement that he "will not be attending" the Jaipur Literature Festival.
