Singer and actor Diljit Dosanjh recently met Prime Minister Narendra Modi on New Year’s Day, and it didn’t sit well with some farmer leaders. They were upset because Diljit had previously supported the farmers’ protest against new laws that they believe are unfair.

In their meeting, Diljit called it a “fantastic start” to the New Year, and Modi praised him for his rise to fame from a small village. However, farmer leaders said that if Diljit really cared about their struggles, he should have joined them instead of meeting the Prime Minister. “Why isn’t he with us at the Sambhu Border, listening to our issues?” one farmer leader questioned.

Back in 2020, Diljit was very vocal about supporting the farmers. He urged the government to listen to them and posted about it on Instagram, encouraging everyone to stand with the farmers.

Farmer leader Jagjit Singh Dallewal is currently on a hunger strike at the Khanouri border, trying to get the government to meet their demands, including a promise of minimum prices for crops. Many farmers have gathered there to support him, despite efforts from the Punjab government to convince him to get medical help.

During his meeting with Modi, Diljit admired the Prime Minister’s journey and commented on how special it is to see someone from humble beginnings achieve great things.

But many farmers are still determined to fight until their voices are heard. They want real changes, not just kind words.
