This security lapse will not deter me from raising my voice for Punjab, he added. Sidhu tagged Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann to this tweet.

Cricketer-turned politician Navjot Singh Sidhu was released from Patiala Central Jail on April 1, 2023, after serving nearly 10 months in a road rage death case. Ever since his release, Sidhu has been attacking the ruling party in Punjab over several issues. After he came out of jail, Sidhu visited the Moosewalas. He met the parents of slain singer Sidhu Moosewala who was shot dead on May 29 last year in Mansa district in Punjab. Sidhu also met former party president Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi Vadra in Delhi and said that his commitment for his leaders and Punjab will remain unfazed.
