Diljit Dosanjh recently received criticism after he spelled Punjab as ‘Panjab’ in a post announcing his Chandigarh concert. Many X users pointed out that the spelling is mostly used by the Pakistani side of the region. Not only this, some fans also noticed that the singer missed adding the Indian Tricolour emoji in the post. Now, the singer has finally addressed the ‘conspiracy theory’.
Diljit Dosanjh took to X and along with a screenshot of a tweet where he did add the Indian Tricolour flag after writing Chandigarh Panjab, the singer penned a detailed note to clarify his stance. The note read, “PANJAB, kisi Ek tweet mein agar PANJAB ke saath India flag mention reh Gaya toh conspiracy. Bengaluru ke tweet mein bhi ek jagah reh Gaya tha mention karna Agar Punjab ko PANJAB likha toh conspiracy. PANJAB ko chaahe PUNJAB likho PANJAB WILL BE PANJAB.”
He added, “Panj Aab – meaning Five Rivers…Hats off to those who are using foreigners’ language (English) to push conspiracy theories. In the future, I will write PANJAB in Punjabi, as in Gurumukhi. You guys won’t stop I know. So keep going. How many times do we have to prove that we love India? Do something new or have you been given a task to create conspiracies around me?”
