New Delhi: Twitter users on Sunday called out on actor turned politician and BJP MP Sunny Deol and asked him where he was as the hashtag #SunnyDeolWhereAreYou went trending on the micro-blogging site.
The reason however behind the trending hashtag was the protests of farmers who are protesting against the contentious farm Bills that were passed in parliament last week.
The farmers in the state even took to "rail roko" agitation at several places. The movement of trains in Punjab remained suspended in the wake of the "rail roko" agitation, which was extended by three days till September 29. Earlier, the farmers had decided to block trains from September 24 to 26.
Meanwhile, #SunnyDeolWhereAreYou began trending on Twitter on Sunday. Sunny Deol is the BJP MP from Punjab's Gurdaspur. Recently, he hailed the Bills and wrote in Hindi, “The Government of India had assured that farmers will be able to sell their agricultural produce at a place of their choice at a better price, which will increase the number of potential buyers." “The farmer will continue to own the crop at the production state and the crop will be insured and the farmer will also be able to take loans from financial institutions if needed,” he added.
On Saturday, farmers in Punjab went on to announce a 'social boycott' of Deol after he supported the Bills. "He is a Punjabi and his family has a farming background. Still, he has failed to understand the pain of farmers," said BKU (Lakhowal) general secretary Harinder Singh Lakhowal.
The trend was soon one of the top-trending hashtags on Twitter with over 11k tweets at the posting of this report.
Here are some of the tweets from Sunday’s campaign by Twitter users against the actor.

People voted and made him MP thinking his strong voice would echo in the parliament but it’s shame that he has gone into a hiding since last election and hasn’t uttered a single word for farmers and labourers who are his greatest fans.

Sunny Deol was there where he should be i.e. parliament that he had voted in favor of making farmers independent in Bharat to sell their crops anywhere & anyone & any educated person will support such decisions than enslaving to state government grain market #SunnyDeolWhereAreYou

Mumbai (PTI): Veteran screenwriter Salim Khan suffered a brain haemorrhage which has been tackled, is on ventilator support as a safeguard and stable, doctors treating him said on Wednesday, a day after he was admitted to the Lilavati Hospital here.
The 90-year-old, one half of the celebrated Salim-Javed duo which scripted films such as "Sholay", "Deewar" and "Don" with Javed Akhtar, is in the ICU and recovery might take some time given his age.
"His blood pressure was high for which we treated him and we had to put him on a ventilator because we wanted to do certain investigations. Now the ventilator was put as a safeguard so that his situation doesn't get worse. So it is not that he is critical," Dr Jalil Parkar told reporters.
"We did the investigations that were required and today we have done a small procedure on him, I will not go into the details. The procedure done is called DSA (digital subtraction angiography). The procedure has been accomplished, he is fine and stable and shifted back to ICU. By tomorrow, we hope to get him off the ventilator. All in all, he is doing quite well," he added.
Asked whether he suffered a brain haemorrhage, the doctor said, "Unko thoda haemorrhage hua tha, which we’ve tackled. No surgery is required.
As concern over Khan's health mounted, his children, including superstar Salman Khan and Arbaaz Khan, daughter Alvira, and sons-in-law Atul Agnihotri and Aayush Sharma, have been seen outside the hospital along with other well-wishers. His long-time partner Akhtar was also seen coming out of the hospital.
Khan, a household name in the 70s and 80s, turned 90 on November 24 last year. It was the day Dharmendra, the star of many of his films, including "Sholay", "Seeta aur Geeta" and "Yaadon Ki Baraat", passed away.
Hailing from an affluent family in Indore, Khan arrived in Mumbai in his 20s with dreams of stardom. He was good looking and confident he would make a mark in the industry as an actor. But that did not happen. And then, after struggling for close to a decade and getting confined to small roles in films, he changed lanes.
He worked as an assistant to Abrar Alvi and soon met Akhtar to form one of Hindi cinema's most formidable writing partnerships. They worked together on two dozen movies with most of them achieving blockbuster status.
Other than "Sholay", "Deewar" and "Don", Khan and Akhtar also penned "Trishul", "Zanjeer", "Seeta Aur Geeta", "Haathi Mere Saathi", "Yaadon Ki Baarat" and "Mr India".
