Agar ਪੰਜਾਬ Ko PANJAB Likha toh Conspiracy. PANJAB Ko Chaye PUNJAB likho.. ਪੰਜਾਬ ਪੰਜਾਬ Hee Rehna Panj Aab - 5 Rivers ((If I forgot to mention the India flag with Panjab in one tweet, then you create a conspiracy. I missed mentioning it even in a Bengaluru tweet. If I write Punjab as Panjab, then conspiracy)."
