Jalandhar, March 23

Punjabi singer and popular Dalit activist Ginni Mahi has been stuck in Italy. She was at the fag-end of her Europe tour when the flights got cancelled.

Jalandhar-based Mahi had left from here along with father Rakesh Mahi and reached Rome on March 8. She even held two of her music programmes in the coronavirus-hit country after which she finally announced to cancel her programmes on March 16 in view of the increasing spread of the disease.

Since then she has been regularly uploading her posts on social media. She said she is in Ardea, a town 35 km from Rome. She has mentioned that like others in the country, she too has been staying indoors. “There is a complete restriction on movement and the cops are able to detect even the slightest movement and quickly come to push you in,” she said in the video.

Her brother Nav Prince said, “Ginni is near Rome with dad. We hope she gets back home safe.”
