Slain Punjabi singer Sidhu Moosewala’s YouTube account has been awarded diamond play button after the handle surpassed 1 crore subscribers.

Sidhu has become the first Punjabi singer to accomplish the feat.

Late singer’s parents— Balkaur Singh Sidhu and Charan Kaur— collected the prestigious accolade on his behalf.

Sidhu Moosewala’s YouTube account currently has around 17 million subscribers. His channel has highest number of subscribers in Punjabi industry.

Sidhu, who created a niche for himself with his unique rapping style, was known for hit tracks like ‘295’, ‘So High’, ‘Legend’, ‘Devil’, ‘Just listen’, ‘Jatt da Muqabala’ and ‘Hathyar’, among many others.

Sidhu was shot dead in broad daylight by assailants on May 29 in his Thar.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
