Jatt supremacism and pro-Khalistani and Bhindranwale imagery arenât the only prominent features of the songs released to back the farmer protests.
Class superiority and anti-Hindu bigotry are another important facet in some of them.
While most songs take a dig at Prime Minister Narendra Modi, some show contempt for his humble beginnings and mock his tea-selling days.
Punjabi songs are a craze not just in Punjab but in neighbouring states of Haryana, Himachal, Jammu and Kashmir, Uttarakhand, Uttar Pradesh and Rajasthan as well.
