Diljit Dosanjh Says Calgary Ejections Were For Fan Safety

He frames the dispute as stopping harassment inside venues, not opposing flags.

Overview

  • Diljit Dosanjh, who posted on Monday, said he told security to remove anyone disrupting his Calgary concert and that he will not allow fans to be harassed inside venues.
  • Viral clips from the early May show in Calgary show him pausing the set after pro‑Khalistan flags appeared in the crowd and directing staff to eject those causing a disturbance.
  • He wrote on Instagram Stories that the concern is the intent behind banners rather than the banners themselves and urged people to stop spreading “fake narratives.”
  • India Today reported the flags seen at the concert are tied to a group banned under India’s Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act, raising legal and security sensitivities around the incident.
  • Outlets linked the clash to backlash after his October 2025 Kaun Banega Crorepati appearance and alleged threats from Sikhs for Justice, a US‑based group that has targeted his shows.
