Awards aren't given on merit but on connections: Jasleen Royal

Stating that she has experienced favouritism at award shows, singer-songwriter Jasleen Royal shared, "The awards aren't given on merit. They're given because you're connected with this [and that] person." When asked about "music mafia", Jasleen said, "I wouldn't like to negate what someone else might have experienced." "So far...I'm lucky enough that I've not experienced such problems," she added.
