Chandigarh, May 13, 2026: Bhagwant Mann on Tuesday alleged that Punjabi singer-actor Diljit Dosanjh was facing political pressure from the BJP to enter politics, and termed such methods as “dangerous” and unacceptable.
Speaking in Delhi, Mann said reports had emerged suggesting that Diljit was being pressured to join politics, despite the artist clearly stating that he wishes to continue his creative work.
“In the last few days, it was heard that Diljit was being pressurised by the BJP to enter politics. Diljit has clearly said that he is an artist and enjoys his work,” Mann said. He further alleged that when direct pressure fails, indirect intimidation tactics are used.
“Then, there are other ways of creating pressure by shooting at someone’s manager and such things. This kind of politics should not be done,” he added.
