- Official Statement:
To whomsoever it may concern
Temporarily Suspension of all DEL48 activities
In light of the ongoing development resulting from the Coronavirus, related decisions made by the Indian Health Ministry, and out of abundance of caution we announce the temporary suspension of India’s female Idol group named DEL48 based out of Gurugram, India.
Due to the global spread of COVID-19, many businesses across India have been affected and forced to take unwanted decisions. Our firm, "YKBK48 entertainment" has also been affected since the Indian Health Ministry has called for the ban on all events. Therefore, at this time we cannot assure any further artist activities. We regret to inform you that we have no other choice but to temporarily suspend all DEL48 activities from 5th October 2020 onwards until further notice.
During this unpredictable time, we fully support all the measures to protect the health and welfare of our artists and beyond. While we understand that this temporary suspension of DEL48 is daunting for the fans and associated businesses who anticipated their success, kindly take note that once the COVID-19 situation is under control we would like to recommence their activities. We shall notify the date of resumption at the right time.
We pray for your health and hope that this disaster will come to an end soon. Stay Safe!
