Distraught by the shooting incident, she blamed Aam Aadmi Party-led government in Punjab for the attack. She said, “You removed my son’s security, and he was attacked today. They were saying there is no need for security. Now go and see how my son was shot. Shoot me as well. Such a useless government this is.”
When the video was recorded, it was unclear if Moosewala was alive or had succumbed to bullet injuries. Notably, his security was removed by the AAP government along with 423 other prominent personalities in Punjab.
Murder of Sidhu Moosewala
On May 29, controversial singer and Congress leader Sidhu Moosewala was shot dead. Multiple rounds were fired at his vehicle in district Mansa, Punjab.

Lawrence Bishnoi gang took responsibility for the murder, alleging Moosewala was involved in the murder of one of their gang member, but Police did not take any action against him.
