In a tweet in Punjabi, he said, "Farming is the soul of Punjab, the wounds of the body can heal but an attack on our spirit, our existence will not be tolerated. The war trumpet says Inqilab Zindabad, Punjab, Punjabiyat and each Punjabi are with the farmers."

In another tweet in Hindi, he took a swipe at the BJP-led government and said, "Governments keep committing the same mistake, the dust was on its face, but it kept cleaning the mirror."
