Heirs De Punjab
On September 30, 2021, Punjabi actor-turned-activist Sandeep Singh alias Deep Sidhu started an organization called Waris Punjab De (Waris Punjab). The main aim of the organization is to ‘protect and fight for the rights of Punjab and raise social issues.’ At that time, Daljit Singh Kalsi was close to Deep Sidhu and associated himself with the organization. Following the death of Deep Sidhu in a road accident, Amritpal Singh was appointed as the head of Waris Punjab De. Many people believe that Kalsi is behind the suspicious anointing of Amritpal as the Mukh Sevadar of Waris Punjab De. Since then, he has been Amritpal’s advisor and financier.
