CHANDIGARH, Sept. 28 – Punjabi artists are increasingly expressing that they feel safer in Punjab than in foreign countries such as Canada, citing strengthened law enforcement and government initiatives.
Famous singer Karan Aujla recently said, “I feel insecure in Canada, but in Punjab, because of Punjab Police and the Punjab government, I feel much safer.” Similarly, singer Mankirat Aulakh noted in an interview, “If there was a police force like Punjab Police in Canada, gangsterism would end there. Punjab Police is the strongest police in India.” Their statements reflect both confidence in law enforcement and a sense of security among artists living in Punjab.
Under Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann, the Punjab government has prioritized public safety and peace. Officials say the government’s policies, combined with the prompt actions of Punjab Police, have instilled trust among citizens and artists alike, enabling them to pursue their careers without fear.
Punjab Police have recently cracked down on gangsters and criminal networks, responding seriously to threats and strengthening security systems. As a result, the environment in Punjab is viewed as more stable and secure than before.
Artists of Punjabi origin living in Canada often face threats due to gang violence and criminal activities, leading to stress and insecurity. In contrast, those in Punjab report not only enhanced protection but also a sense of belonging among families and fans.
The Mann government has emphasized that maintaining peace and safety in Punjab is a top priority. Officials say the combination of firm government resolve and the capability of Punjab Police has created an environment where artists openly feel protected and secure in the state.
