Recently, social media influencers from states like Uttar Pradesh, including Jaiky Yadav and Kranti Kumar, have been posting glowing tributes to Punjab Police. Highlighting record drug seizures, high conviction rates, and the dismantling of terror modules, their praise has raised eyebrows. The sudden attention begs the question: are these endorsements genuine, or part of a larger narrative strategy?

Punjab Police’s Achievements in the Spotlight

Punjab Police has been recognized for its robust crackdown on crime, including narcotics and terrorism. According to official data:

  • 1,342 kilograms of heroin seized, accounting for nearly 60% of India’s total recovery.
  • 87% conviction rate, the highest in the country.
  • 26 terror modules busted, with 88 militants arrested.
  • 20 murder cases investigated, 18 solved.
  • Over 31,000 arrests and more than 20,000 FIRs registered this year.

Ahead of the festive season, the police also conducted a security review to thwart alleged ISI-backed plots targeting Punjab.

Influencers Amplifying the Narrative

Influencers like Jaiky Yadav and Kranti Kumar have taken to X (formerly Twitter) to hail Punjab Police as the “most effective force in the country.” They contrasted Punjab’s present performance with the past image of “Udta Punjab,” highlighting the state’s progress in law enforcement.

Questions and Controversy

This sudden praise from influencers with no direct connection to Punjab has sparked debate:

  • Are these endorsements spontaneous, or are the influencers being indirectly compensated?
  • Is this part of a larger strategy to portray Punjab as safe and well-governed while downplaying ongoing social challenges?
  • Could this trend reflect a broader effort to influence national perception through social media narratives?

Experts note that governments often engage external voices to amplify positive news, especially during sensitive periods such as elections or major public events.

Punjab’s Ground Reality

While Punjab Police’s achievements are commendable, critics argue that drug abuse, unemployment, and law-and-order challenges remain pressing issues. Many families still experience the daily consequences of narcotics and organized crime.

Social media acclaim cannot replace tangible improvement at the grassroots level. Residents emphasize that real progress must be visible in communities, not just on screens.

Conclusion

The praise for Punjab Police by non-Punjab influencers such as Jaiky Yadav and Kranti Kumar highlights both the force’s real achievements and the potential for orchestrated narrative management. Whether spontaneous admiration or strategic promotion, the focus remains on Punjab Police and the state government to deliver results that are as real as the headlines.
