Interpol warns of organized crime threat to COVID-19 vaccines, both physically and online

A large number of Punjab actors, singers, songwriters and sportsmen have expressed solidarity with farmers in ongoing protests in the national capital. Farmers from all over the country have gathered in Delhi to protest against the new agricultural laws implemented by the Center. Started by farmers in Punjab, people from Haryana and Uttar Pradesh have now joined the protest.

From lending their voice to the farmers ‘movement to posting tweets and messages of support on social media, this is how the Punjabi film fraternity and sportsmen have supported the farmers’ movement in their fight against new farm laws.

Punjabi heartthrob Diljit Dosanjh actively supports farmers on his social media by sharing messages and information about the protests. Recently, when Haryana’s Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar made a sarcastic comment that farmers have a link with Khalistani, Diljit responded by saying, “We are farmers, not terrorists.” He also shared a series of photos from the protests and asked if the farmers looked like terrorists to anyone. Diljit also criticized Kangana Ranaut for his misleading tweet about one of the protesters. Kangana had labeled it as a paid protest, who was available to participate in the protests for 100 rupees, and also mistakenly identified it as Shaheen Baug’s daadi. The protester in the photo is actually an old man from Bhatinda. Kangana was forced to delete the tweet after receiving a massive backlash. But he has yet to apologize for the false claims he made about it.

Renowned Punjabi singer Gurdas Maan reiterated that India exists only because its farmers exist. He also prayed for their well-being. “Kisaan hai, teh Hindustaan ​​hai. Sarbat Da bhala hovey (sic),” he wrote.

Singer Ammy Virk asked people to support farmers in large numbers. He wrote that if people love themselves and love humanity, then they must come out in support of farmers. He mentioned that people from all over the world can extend their solidarity even with a single tweet or message, and they do not necessarily need to go out to support farmers.

Gippy Grewal expressed his solidarity with the farmers and reiterated: “Without farmers, there is no food.” Urging everyone to take care of themselves, Grewal asked more people to turn their attention to and support farmers. He also shared a video of Gurpreet Ghuggi calling on farmers not to be provoked in any way and to peacefully continue the protest for their rights.

Singer Harbhajan Mann announced that he had gone to Delhi to participate in the protests with the farmers. “We are going to Delhi to participate in the peaceful protests with our farmers. It is encouraging to see a wide variety of people coming together and supporting this cause. Farmers are not only the backbone of our nation or any other, but also a part of many of our identities, “he tweeted.

Jasbir Jassi shared an image of an army personnel deployed to the national capital to uphold law and order by beating a protesting farmer with a baton. He wrote that the government has propped up the country’s soldiers against the country’s farmers and nothing can be more shameful than that.

Rapper Honey Singh also shared a photo of a farmer standing in his field and praying to God for the protesters. “My prayers with the farmers. Oh God, please bless them,” he wrote. December 3 will be the eighth day of the farmers’ protest. They have braved the cold, the water cannons and the lathis, calling on the government to scrap the three new pieces of legislation that were recently passed in Parliament. The captain of the Punjab CM, Amarinder Singh, will meet today in the capital with the Minister of the Interior, Amit Shah. A few rounds of discussions with farmers’ representatives have not yielded any results so far.

Ranjit Bawa has changed the name of his Twitter account to “I Stand With Farmers” and has been constantly tweeting in support of it. He also shared a photo of himself serving food to protesters and wrote: “As a farmer, it is our responsibility to feed people in need. We are farmers who feed the nation. So please respect the farmers and support them ( sic) “.

Team India cricketer Harbhajan Singh became the latest celebrity to express his support for the farmers’ protests. Sharing a cartoon of protesting farmers in Delhi, holding up signs that read “We are farmers, not terrorists”, Harbhajan wrote: “I support our fellow farmers.”
