The nation is deeply saddened with the horrific Pulwama terror attack which killed 40 CRPF jawans on Thursday. Apart from sadness, the country has witnessed erupting anger in the heart of every citizen except Congress leader and former cricketer Navjot Singh Sidhu. #PulwamaRevenge, #BadlaKab, and #IndiaUnited has been trending since the fatal attack happened. Today we can see a new hash-tag on social media especially on Twitter i.e.- #BoycottSidhu, and here is the reason-

Dec 27, 1988. Navjot Singh Sidhu beat up an elderly man just for a scuffle over a parking space. The man later died in the hospital.
But death of 44 CRPF Jawans should be absolved over peace talks. Hypocrite. #PhulwamaTerrorAttack #BoycottSidhu #PulwamaRevenge pic.twitter.com/q7cWP7ShPF

Consequently, Sony channel announced the termination of Navjot Singh Sidhu from The Kapil Sharma Show. According to the reports, Actress Archana Pooran Singh will take his place in TKSS.
Last year, Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan’s invite to Navjot Sidhu for his swearing-in ceremony became controversial. Despite strained ties between India and Pakistan and his senior colleagues advising him not to go, Navjot Sidhu went ahead citing his “personal friendship” with Imran Khan, a former cricketer.
Mr. Sidhu faced sharp criticism for sharing a hug with Pakistan’s army chief General Qamar Javed Bajwa.
Just to keep you updated, the suicide bombing on 14th February has left the country with overflowing anger. People have gone out on the streets as a mark of protest and demanding revenge.
