Sunny, Akshay are traitors: Punjabi singer

Patiala: Punjabi singer Jass Bajwa on Wednesday asked the farmers’ swell at the Fatehgarh Sahib mahapanchayat to shoo away Bollywood Punjabis Sunny Deol and Akshay Kumar should they ever come to the state for film shooting, as “they give a silent support to the three farm laws”.

He branded them “traitors unworthy of using the state’s fields as backdrop”. He said, “International celebrities such as Rihanna tweeted in favour of the farmers, while these fake Punjabis who don turbans for shooting uttered not a word of support. And we called them brothers.”

He has asked the Sanyukta Kisan Morcha to get after the government for the release of all the farmers and youth arrested in Delhi. The mahapanchayat was at the Sirhind grain market and farmer unionists B S Rajewal and Darshanpal were present. Actor and former cricketer Yograj Singh asked farmers to fight election in Punjab.
