Gurdas Maan, Honey Singh pay tribute to SI Harjeet Singh

Two weeks ago, a group of Nihang Sikhs (a religious sect whose members carry traditional weapons) attacked a police team in Punjab's Patiala.

During the attack, assistant sub-inspector (ASI) Harjeet Singh's hand was cut off.

Thereafter, the brave cop underwent successful 7.5-hour-long surgery at the PGIMER, Chandigarh. He is now recovering.

Harjeet Singh has been promoted to the post of Sub-Inspector (SI).

Now, various Punjabi celebrities have come forward to show solidarity towards the campaign and hailed SI Harjeet Singh's bravery.

Sharing a video, singer Gurdas Maan tweeted, "My love and respect for inspector Harjit Singh and his family and all those frontline corona warriors (sic)."

Meanwhile, rapper Honey Singh tweeted, "SI Harjeet Singh is a symbol of bravery and I salute his spirit and courage."

On Monday, Punjab Chief Minister Amarinder Singh shared a video of SI Harjeet Singh from the hospital.

He said the cop is recovering well and his hand has started to regain movement.

"I am extremely happy to share that he is recovering well and that his hand has started to regain movement. Sharing this video of braveheart Harjeet Singh with you all," he tweeted.
