NDTV
"My intent in sharing that post was only to Pray for Punjab as there were reports of electricity and internet shutdowns in the state," Shubh said.
Canada-based Punjabi singer Shubhneet Singh, popularly known by his stage name Shubh, has expressed his disappointment after his India tour was cancelled following allegations of his support for Khalistan.
In an Instagram post on Thursday, Shubh said he was "extremely disheartened" by the cancellation of the tour and that he was "highly amped up and enthusiastic" to perform in his home country.
The singer's tour was cancelled by BookMyShow on Wednesday after the ticket-booking app faced a boycott call on social media. The boycott was sparked by Shubh's sharing a distorted map of India on his Instagram story in January, which omitted the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir, Punjab, and the Northeastern states.
