Fact-checked by cops, Harbhajan Singh jabs AAP, ‘focus on drug menace’

BJP MP Harbhajan Singh unleashed a video featuring motionless men, escalating his conflict with Punjab's AAP government over drug abuse. The ex-India cricketer posted the video on X, which was a duplicate of a video previously fact-checked by state police and believed to have been shot in Rajasthan. The AAP party responded by accusing the BJP of maligning Punjab and its youth, stating that the discussions were about Punjab's drug problem and that paid trolls were trying to hide it.

Singh reiterated his stance, emphasizing that the issue of drug abuse in Punjab cannot be ignored, and that efforts should be made to make the state drug-free. He also criticized those who targeted specific individuals instead of addressing the broader problem. The BJP MP's video was claimed to have been shot in Rajasthan, and the Punjab Police urged users to verify the facts and location before sharing misleading content or tagging Punjab Police.
