Balkaur Singh, the father of late Punjabi Singer Shubhdeep Singh, alias Sidhu Moosewala, on the occasion of his son’s first Barsi (death anniversary) in Moga praised Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath for the crackdown on gangsters and criminals in the state. He said that if Yogi had been in Punjab, his son’s murder would not have taken place.
