Punjabi singer-actor Diljit Dosanjh met PM Narendra Modi on the occasion of New Year. Diljit and PM's visit did not go well due to protests by some farmers at the Shambhu border.
A farmer present there said that if Diljit was really concerned about the farmers, he would have gone to the Shambhu border. He would have raised his voice for the farmers. Instead of doing all this, his meeting with PM Modi raises some questions.
In fact, Diljit Dosanjh has besieged the government on the issue of farmers on several occasions. In 2020, he reached the Singhu border, where agitations were taking place over the Agriculture Bill. Diljit advised the government there to accept all the demands of the farmers.
What did the farmer say about Diljit? According to a Times of India report, a farmer present at the Shambhu border said, 'If Diljit really cared about the farmers, he would have come to the Shambhu border to show solidarity with Dallewal ji, listen to our concerns and not repeat his past. Instead, meeting PM Modi casts doubt on his intentions.
Farmer leader Jagjit Singh Dallewal has been fasting for 39 days. Dallewal is demanding a law to guarantee minimum purchase price (MSP) for crops.
Why is Diljit's meeting with PM Modi special? Diljit's meeting with PM Modi is special in many ways. Every day he spoke directly and indirectly against the government for one reason or the other. A few days ago, at a concert in Ahmedabad, he reacted to the lyrics based on alcohol. Diljit said that if the government bans alcohol completely, he will stop singing songs based on it.
Two days ago, at a concert in Ludhiana, he had sung songs promoting alcohol, prompting social activists there to take action against him.
In this meeting, the PM praised the singer a lot.
Diljit and BJP MP Kangana had an argument about farmers There are many arguments on social media between Diljit and BJP MP Kangana Ranaut regarding farmers. Kangana once called Diljit Karan Johar's 'pet'.
In response, Diljit called Kangana 'crazy'. However, Kangana was not in politics at that time. Now it will be interesting to see what Diljit's reaction is to his meeting with PM Modi.
