The accused of the robbery at Punjab National Bank in Jaipur is also a singer. The accused, Bharat Singh Meena, has a YouTube channel named ‘Nyaro Rajasthan Official’, where he uploads videos of acting and singing. However, the channel has only 1700 subscribers, and he wanted to increase his subscriber count.

Someone suggested to him that to run the channel and attract more subscribers, he would need good cameras, video editors, sound editors, and camera crew. All of these would require a significant amount of money. Therefore, he planned to commit the bank robbery. He had already committed two bank robberies with his brother in the past.
