Singer Baljit Singh Found Dead at Home

Punjabi singer and songwriter Baljit Singh was found dead in his Ludhiana residence on September 3, 2026. The discovery was made after neighbors reported a lingering foul odor, prompting police intervention. Baljit Singh, who lived alone, had reportedly been missing for four to five days prior to his body being recovered.

Initial suspicions of foul play were investigated, with blood stains noted within the residence. However, a subsequent postmortem examination conducted by Sudhar police station SHO Kulwinder Singh concluded that the singer died of a heart attack and ruled out any criminal involvement. The body was then released to his family.

Police confirmed he had a prior drug-related case but stated he was not addicted.

Authorities are actively reviewing CCTV footage and trying to establish the singer's movements in the days leading up to his death. Forensic teams and other specialized units were deployed to the scene. Netizens have expressed condolences and called for a thorough investigation into the circumstances surrounding his passing.
