Recently, the Moose Wala family, renowned in the Punjabi music industry, welcomed the arrival of their second son through the IVF technique on Sunday. The family, grappling with the loss of the iconic singer-rapper Sidhu Moose Wala, found solace in the arrival of their newest member.

However, Sidhu Moose Wala's father, Balkaur Singh, took to social media to allege harassment by the Punjab government, stirring a new controversy. Notably, Punjabi singer Gurdas Maan graced the occasion, extending his heartfelt congratulations and blessings to the family.

However, the mood took a sombre turn when Balkaur Singh, Sidhu Moose Wala's father, aired his grievances against the Punjab government led by Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann. In a video posted on his Instagram handle, Singh accused the government of subjecting him to harassment, particularly concerning the legal status of the newborn.

As per Pinkvilla, Singh expressed, “Since morning I was very tense and thought you all should also be aware of everything. The government has been harassing me since morning, asking me to present documents of the baby. They are questioning me to prove that this child is legal.” He added, "I want to request the government, especially Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann, to allow for all treatments to be over. I belong here and will continue to live here. Where ever you will summon me, I will come,”

Addressing the CM further, he said, "I want to tell you in strong words that you have a habit of taking a U-turn. Your advisors give you such advice that it becomes difficult to go back on that decision.” Driving his point home, he elaborated, "“If you are trying to harass me, then come fully prepared to take me on. I am not among those who take U-turns. As far as the law is concerned, I want to tell you that my son lived for 28 years abiding by the law."

He furthered, "I, being an ex-serviceman, also respect the law. I would also like to make you believe that I have not violated the law at any point. If I have done it, then you put me in jail. If you do not have trust in me, then put me behind bars by registering an FIR. Then do your investigation. At the same time, I want to tell you that I will give you the legal documents and get out of this clean.”
