Singer gets State funeral; Govt to order probe
LUDHIANA: Singer Ishmeet Singh was given a State funeral here on Thursday evening with people from all walks of life, braving heavy rain, turning up to bid adieu to the teenager who shot into fame in a television reality show.
The State Government announced it will set up an Institute of Excellence for Performing Arts named after Ishmeet.
A shocked Gurprinder Singh Sodhi lit the pyre of his only son as wreaths were laid on the body on behalf of Punjab Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal. Ishmeet’s mother Amritpal Kaur, relatives, family members, admirers and people from different walks of life were present.
Mr. Badal’s Media Advisor H. S. Bains said the State Government will honour the wishes of the family and order for an inquiry into the causes leading to Ishmeet’s death.
