JALANDHAR: After shaming people for breaking the curfew, Punjab Police have now collaborated with singer Sidhu Moose Wala , who was accused of producing songs which promoted violence, to shame the 70-year-old man who became the state’s first casualty of Covid-19.The 5.18-minute-long music video of the song, Gurbaksh Gwacheya, was uploaded on Moose Wala’s YouTube page on Thursday evening and, a couple of hours later, shared on the Twitter handles of Punjab Police and its chief, DGP Dinkar Gupta.Of the 38 Covid-19 patients in Punjab reported till Friday, 26 got it through contact with Baldev Singh.The song puts the blame on the Nawanshahr man, who died of complications arising out of coronavirus on March 18, for bringing and spreading Covid-19 in the state. Though name of the character has been changed to Gurbaksh, pictures of the deceased have been used throughout the video and news clips have also been shared about his death, thus leaving little to imagination.The singer-rapper has dedicated the video to Punjab Police and it opens with the insignia of the state force.In the song, the fictitious character of Gurbaksh repents he brought the infection to not just Punjab, but to India, as he deliberately concealed his disease from everybody. The entire premise of the song has been built around Gurbaksh being aware of his infection, but still concealing it from all due to which the disease spread.While photos of the deceased have been used throughout the song, there are glaring factual erros. To begin with, the song describes the deceased as an NRI, but he was a resident of Nawanshahr who travelled to Italy and Germany for two weeks.Were travellers told to isolate ?While Punjab Police have got the song produced, the premise of the music video that the first coronavirus casualty of Punjab was aware of his disease but concealed stands in contrast to the evident sequence of events and official records.After landing at IGI Airport in Delhi, where thermal screening had started in first week of March, the deceased reached home with two cotravellers on March 7.Nawanshahr civil surgeon Dr Rajinder Bhatia had told TOI on March 19, a day after the death, that they had received a list from the ministry of external affairs on March 13 of persons who had flown abroad. He said a team of health department visited the deceased on March 14. While the civil surgeon said they had told the deceased and the other two to quarantine themselves at home, the co-traveller claimed they were not issued any such directions.He said he and the deceased visited Hola Mohalla before March 14. The deceased fell ill on March 16. He was taken to a private hospital in Jalandhar and then to the local civil hospital. It was only after his death on the morning of March 18 that doctors suspected he could be a Covid-19 patient and took his samples.
