295 (2021)
After his death, many fans pointed out the coincidence of this track’s title being the same date on which Sidhu was assassinated— 29/5. One of his most successful and loved tracks, 295 was the late singer’s opinion on Section 295 of the Indian Penal Code which makes the destruction or defilement of a place of worship or sacred object, with intent to insult a religion, a punishable offence. Recently Indian National Congress leader Rahul Gandhi referred to this very track when asked how many seats his party is expecting in the 2024 Lok Sabha Elections
