Moose Wala's father's harassment allegations against Punjab government
Alongside celebrating the birth of their newborn, Singh recently claimed that he was being harassed by the Punjab government questioning the legitimacy of baby Shubhdeep's birth through IVF. In a video message shared on Instagram, he affirmed that he would "provide all the legal documents" of the child to the government. "I want to request the government, especially Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann, to allow for all treatments to be over," he wrote.
Ministry questioned the legitimacy of Kaur's IVF treatment
A day after Singh made harassment allegations against the Bhagwant Mann-led Punjab government, the Union Ministry of Health raised serious legal concerns over the IVF treatment that Kaur received. Moose Wala's mother birthed a child through IVF at 58 whereas per government norms, the treatment can only be sought by women aged between 21 and 50. The ministry has asked the state government to file a report on Kaur's case.
