With the beginning of the farmers' movement, propaganda against Punjabi's has started. Those spreading misinformation are spewing venom on social media regarding Punjabi's, farmers and especially Sikhs in their own way.
Some are calling farmers terrorists, some Khalistani and some dacoits. Khalistani is trending on Twitter since yesterday. In this, the list of users using abusive language against farmers is long.
A photo was posted from a parody account of Assam PM Hemant Biswa Sharma, in which a young man sitting on the roof of a jeep is reading a newspaper. It was written whether he was a farmer or a dacoit. Actually this photo went viral in 2020. Even then some BJP person wrote on it that this jeep is of Mercedes and its price is Rs 1.5 crore.
But in reality this vehicle is Force Motors' SUV Gurkha. The owner of this vehicle is Manpreet Singh, who is a businessman by profession and his family does farming. Manpreet Singh is a resident of Sri Anandpur Sahib. In this atmosphere of tension, it is everyone's responsibility not to share any rumour or wrong information. In this way, strictest action should be taken against those who spew poison against farmers.
