RIOTS
SC turns
down plea for relief to 200 families
Legal
Correspondent
New Delhi,
January 4
The Supreme
Court today dismissed a petition of a New York-based organisation, Sikhs for
Justice, pleading for rehabilitation of about 200 families in Chandigarh
affected by the 1984 anti-Sikh riots.
A Bench
comprising Justices GS Singhvi and Gyan Sudha Misra, however, clarified that
the riot-hit families were free to seek appropriate remedy for their
grievances.
Arguing for
the organisation, senior counsel Colin Gonsalves said these families were given
Rs 3 lakh as relief and nothing more. The petition sought jobs and free ration
for the victims on the lines of the rehabilitation package offered to migrant
Kashmiri pandits affected by militancy in Jammu and Kashmir. “Those affected
are certainly entitled to seek redress. You are a foreign body altogether as
even your members are not Indians,” the Bench noted.
Gonsalves
said his client had taken up a number of similar cases at the international
level and that was why he had agreed to appear for the organisation. During
arguments, the Bench asked as to whether the organisation was involved in
terrorist activities in Punjab in the 1980s.
Comments
by Simranjit Singh Mann: Shiromani Akali Dal (Amritsar) states that we are ashamed that
Justices of the Supreme Court GS Singhvi and Gyan Sudha Misra have asked the senior
Supreme Court counsel Colin Gonsalves whether the petitioner Sikh’s for Justice
is a “foreign body altogether as even your members are not Indians”. This
bench further asked the petitioners counsel whether the organisation he
represented “was involved in terrorist activities in Punjab in the
1980s”.
We think
this is a disgraceful and shameful act of the two judges to ask such communal
questions because the Sikh’s have been demanding justice since 1984 when they
were subjected to the crime of genocide being perpetrated against them by the
Hindu state. Such questions show the biased, prejudiced and poisonous minds of
the two bigoted, right-wing Hindu judges.
We state
that article twenty one of the constitution states-that no person can be
deprived of his life and liberty without following the procedure laid down by
law. If the constitution states that “no person” it means that even
a non citizen of THIS (Theocratic Hindu Indian State) which would mean a
foreigner and even a person involved in terrorist activities can file a
writ in the Supreme Court. By making this query about the legitimacy of the
Sikh petitioners the two judges have changed a laid down constitutional
guarantee and a full bench ruling of the Supreme Court that the basic structure
of the constitution, that is, the fundamental rights enshrined in the
constitution cannot be changed or altered. But the two judges in their hatred
and bias against the Sikh’s have gone against the very basic structure of the
constitution and that too by the full constitutional bench of the Supreme
Court. In giving such a ruling the justices have also violated article 14 of
the constitution, because all are equal before the law, foreigners, terrorists
and the Sikh’s, though we refuse to be in such a nomenclature.
We do not
understand why the whole system in THIS (Theocratic Hindu Indian State) works
against the Sikh’s. Appointing a Sikh Prime Minister or a Sikh General of the
army does not mean that the crime of genocide, war crimes and crimes against
humanity perpetrated against the Sikh peoples have been addressed.
If the
Supreme Court could pick up the issue of the Hindu self proclaimed god man Ram
Dev, suo moto, who was not allowed to hold a rally in Delhi and put the
government and the police in the dock, then in 1984 when the Sikh’s were being
butchered and massacred in Delhi under the very nose of the Supreme Court, then
why could not the Supreme Court then or now take up this matter?
When it was
brought to the notice of the Supreme Court that twenty five thousand Sikh dead
bodies had been cremated secretly in the Punjab, then instead of entertaining
such a writ, the Supreme Court handed it over to the National Human Rights
Commission which does not have the authority to probe into the excesses committed
by the armed forces and the para-military forces or have any penal power,
then what good would it have done to the aggrieved Sikh peoples ? Such crimes
were committed all over the Punjab and Haryana and other states but NHRC
confined the probe to the limits of Amritsar district alone. Till date none of
the perpetrators of these ghastly crime have been put in the dock?
Then 43
Sikhs were massacred in village Chithi Singh Pura of Srinagar valley by the
army but the Supreme Court has failed to take cognizance so far.
We are all
concerned about the recent rape in Delhi and the Supreme Court is also like
every rational being concerned about such a abominable crime against a twenty
three year old lady. But when Hindu mobs in Delhi were raping and defiling Sikh
women in 1984, and even around the premises of the Supreme Court why did the
cat catch the tongue of the judges at that time and paralyse them into
inaction?
During that
very period these very mobs with the active aid and connivance of the police
were catching young Sikh boys, putting rubber tyres around their necks and
putting them on fire. What happened to this exalted body then? We also ask when
Director General of Police KPS. Gill was convicted by the Supreme Court for
molesting and shaming a female IAS officer Ms. Rupin Deol Bajaj, why is Gill
getting his pension which no convicted officer can receive under the law?
At the time when Ms. Bajaj was molested by K.P.S. Gill, she sought the
intervention of the then Governor of the Punjab-Sidharath Shankar Roy who was
wholly the boss as Punjab was under Governors rule. Governor Roy advised Ms.
Bajaj to forget the molestation as Gill was fighting the country’s war against
terrorism and if he were to haul up Gill for this crime it would demoralise the
police force and other agencies fighting such a war against the Sikh’s who
happen to be citizens of THIS (Theocratic Hindu Indian State). The war against
terror begun by former President Bush, we ask, when will end? We ask the same
question from both these honourable judges when will the war begun by THIS
(Theocratic Hindu Indian State) against the so called Sikh terrorists end?
President Bush began the war against terrorism against foreigners but THIS
(Theocratic Hindu Indian State) is continuing such a war against its own
people- the Sikh’s, we do not say this but it is Justices GS Singhvi and Gyan
Sudha Misra who have given this ruling?
We do not
know when injustice against the Sikh’s will end when Supreme Court judges have
their minds in knots and prejudices against the Sikh peoples? If the question
of massacres of the Muslims in Gujarat could be taken up by the Supreme Court
after years and years after these abominable crimes then there is no time limit
why the crime of genocide perpetrated against the Sikh peoples can’t be taken
up now on the principles laid down at the Nuremburg Trials or why they
cannot proceed in the manner in which the International Criminal Court at
the Hague is hauling up such rascals and scalawags. We do hope that better
sense would prevail amongst the two judges who must apologise to the Sikh
peoples and put in their resignations. The Sikh’s are not terrorists but we are
the victims of terrorism of the Hindu state.
