Vishal Nayyar, president of the organisation, who is also the grandson of the martyr Sukhdev Singh, said the singer had spoken against martyr Bhagat Singh due to which he  had filed a complaint against him.

Vishal said earlier, a formal complaint was also submitted to the Police Commissioner for registering a case against the singer but no action was taken. But now, the city police have registered a case. Hopefully, the court would give strict punishment to him for insulting the martyr.
