This allegation of pigeon pelting on Daler
Pigeon flying means the business of sending people abroad illegally. This business is going on for years under different names not only in Punjab but in many parts of the country. Punjabi singer Daler Mehndi keeps going abroad for shows. He is accused of illegally taking 10 people to America with him in 1998-99 while going for the show. He described these people as part of his team. In exchange for taking them abroad, money was taken. After this, on 19 September 2003, a case of human trafficking was registered against Daler’s brother Shamsher. After interrogation, the police also named Daler in this.
