New Delhi: It’s singer Jubin Nautiyals’ turn to face the boycott brigade over his September 23 in Houston, US concert. Reportedly, one of the organisers was Jai Singh, a member of a banned Khalistani outfit. Sure enough, soon #ArrestJubinNautiyal started trending on Twitter with netizens calling him an anti-national. They blasted the singer for having connections with ‘terrorists’ and ‘blacklisted ISI agents.’
“I don’t know any of those guys. We cancelled the show in August. The contract was between my management and a promoter named Herijinder Singh. I don’t know how it got to this point. My mother is in depression. I have nothing more to say. I’ve said it all. The news was picked up from a paid Twitter thread. No one bothered to ask me once. Anti-national? Me?”he said, speaking to IndiaToday.in.
