So, is Simu Dhillon alone in this, No! Many Punjabi singers, who could hardly earn two meals a day, are now having a flourishing career, and all this with the release of anti-government and anti-reform songs, with obviously a secessionist undertone, or aptly, a Khalistani undertone.Īlso read: After India’s veiled warning, countries around the world crack down on Khalistanis Toxic Punjabi music industry aiding Khalistan
‘Sant,” this is how he is referred to, Sant Bhindrawale attained martyrdom for them. The visuals were the highlight of the song by Simu Dhillion, however, the lyrics cannot be missed either, “Masla Punjab Da Pani Da Chandigarh Da, Pa Gaya Shaheedi Sant Hakka De Layi,” which simply translates to that ‘The issues of Punjab are those of water and Chandigarh’s status as a union territory. First, the ones designated for the PM’s security are seen running away, and the next to run away was PM Modi. PM Modi, wearing a saffron overcoat, faces a blockade by Jatts atop their tractors, who then surround him and are armed with sticks.
What happens in the animated video of Punjabi song Fer Dekhange? Jatts are seen blocking Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s convoy and singling him out. For instance, take the ‘Fer Dekhange’ fiasco. But what we missed were the Khalistani undertones of such songs. The songs were labelled as ‘Songs of resistance and Revolution’. It is because songs produced during this time were given much credit for enthusing the protesting youth against the laws. This was another huge indication that everything’s not alright in Punjab otherwise, why would a major chunk of musicians and singers have been bringing out pro-Khalistan songs?

This was another indicator, and a big one this time, however, the authorities refused to come out of their slumbers and act.

When the first posters of Jarnail Singh Bhindrawale appeared in Gurudwaras in the early 2000s, it should have been a wake-up call for the authorities. For over a decade, Punjab has been relently sliding towards the anarchy that swept the state in the 1980s and 1990s. However, whatever you are witnessing today has been brewing for years. Many are saying that the era of the 1980s has returned in Punjab.
