Yuvraj reacted to the backlash saying he didn't want to hurt anyone's feelings and all he tried was to help people suffering due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Veteran off-spinner Harbhajan replied by uploading a video on his Twitter handle showing Sikhs preparing and distributing food to needy in England. "No religion, no cast, only humanity...that's what it is...stay safe stay home...spread love not hate or virus...let's pray for every single one...May Waheguru bless us all," he wrote along with the video.
