Trudeau draws flak for referring to Diljit Dosanjh as ‘Punjabi singer’

Justin Trudeau, the Prime Minister of Canada, faced backlash on Monday for his social media post about Diljit Dosanjh. In the post, Trudeau referred to Dosanjh as a ‘Punjabi singer’ rather than an ‘Indian singer’. Manjinder Singh Sirsa, a BJP minister, criticized the Canadian Prime Minister for his choice of words. Sirsa accused Trudeau of “deliberate mischief through wordplay” by highlighting Dosanjh’s Punjabi identity instead of acknowledging his Indian nationality.
