HUMAN RIGHTS VIOLATIONS AND
GENOCIDE IN PARTICULAR OF SIKHS IN THEIR HOLY AND HISTORICAL HOMELAND, PUNJAB,
AND THE NON-HINDU MINORITIES I IN GENERAL IN PREDOMINANTLY HINDU INDIA
We,
the Sikhs of North America, European countries and Switzerland, would like to
apprise you, the Excellency, of the gross human rights abuses of the Sikhs and
other non-Brahmins-Hindu minorities in India which have been taking place since
15th August, 1947. This was the day when the British India authorities
transferred political power to the ‘unelected’ Hindu leadership and left the
non-Hindu minorities, especially the Sikhs, at the mercy of the majority (only
10% of a total population of 1.2 billion), the Hindus. Since receiving
political power from the British Empire, despite the protest of the Sikhs at
large and their leadership for not returning their ‘First Sovereign and
Secular’ Sikh nation of South Asia, of a Sikh monarch, Ranjit Singh
(1799-1849), the predominantly Hindu India has exterminated more than 3.4
million Sikhs since 15th August, 1947. More than one million in the decade of
1981-91 (Singh S 1995 The Sikhs in History ISBN 0-96475555-0-5; Dilgeer HS and

Hindu India has systematically killed other non-Hindu minorities (more than
500,000 Muslims; over 500,000 Kashmiri Muslims of the Internationally Disputed
Areas of Jammu and Kashmir since occupation; more than 312,500 Christians;
hundreds of thousands of Dalits, adivaases (aboriginals or Moolnivasi of India), in numerous
genocides, pogroms, massacres and staged encounters (25 Years After 1984

the killings of Sikhs in Chitisinghpora in Kashmir in February, 2000; killings
of 6 Sikhs in Kashmir in February, 2001; beheading of a Sikh in Kashmir in
March, 2001; destruction of 6 Mosques in Kanpur, U P, and Bhilwara (Asind),

Addressing the House of Representatives, Congress of the United States, the Hon
Edolphus Towns, Member of Congress, said on 28th March, 2006 “Sikh activists
Kanwarpal Singh Dhami and Dr. Jagjit Singh Chohan (now deceased) were arrested
by the Indian Government on charges of sedition. Their crime was to speak in
support of a sovereign Sikh Nation, Khalistan. Dr. Chohan (now deceased) also
flurried the Khalistan’s flag from his residence. When did free speech become a
crime in a democracy? The Sikh homeland of Khalistan declared itself
independent from India on October 7, 1987.” On 21st March, 2006, in a press
release, Dr Gurmit Singh Aulakh, President of the Council of Khalistan,
Washington DC, said, “What kind of democracy watches people are demanding
freedom? Why don't they watch the Black Cats who have killed thousands of Sikhs
under the protection of the Indian government?''
We would
like to bring to your attention that the Sikh Nation, Punjab, the 'First
Sovereign and Secular' nation of South Asia of monarch Ranjit Singh, 1799 to 14th March,
1849, was 'robbed' by the alleged Indian democracy on 15th August, 1947. The
Sikhs' constitutional rights, Sikh religion and Sikh traditions were 'swallowed'
in the Indian
Constitution 1950, Article 25. The very Constitution 1950 was 'rejected', in the Indian parliament (Lok
Sabha), in its draft
and final forms, in 1948, 26 November 1949, 1950 and more recently on 6th
September 1966. The Sikhs' elected representatives who 'rejected' the Constitution, on behalf of their
people or constituents of Punjab, were Sardar Hukam Singh, Sardar Bhupinder
Singh Maan and Sirdar Kapur Singh, ICS, MP, MLA and the National Professor of
Sikhism. Since their 'rejection of the Indian Constitution 1950', none of
the Sikhs' elected representatives has accepted/endorsed/signed the Indian
Constitution implemented
by the deceitful, divisive, devious and apartheid practicing alleged Indian
democracy of the 'Brahmins-Hindus'. It must be considered seriously that under
what Constitutional rights, the apartheid practicing alleged Indian democracy
has been ruling the 'Sikhs of Punjab (including Haryana, Himachal Pradesh
and Punjabi-speaking areas of Punjab/Sikh Nation/the Sikh Raj of Ranjit Singh) since 15th August,1947? The Sikhs
of Punjab's story does not end here. Rather, it has been continuing since the
Sikh Nation has been under the 'slavery and Tight Control' of the oppressive and suppressive
alleged Indian democracy of the 'Brahmins-Hindus', who had been 'subservient' to the Afghans, Mughals, Sikhs,
British,Portuguese, etc., for more than 3,500 years.
Additionally,
the excesses of the Indian forces can be summarized as follows:
On
5th November, 1978, the Hindu India police of Delhi fired at a Sikh procession and
killed four Sikhs, including the president of the Delhi Akali Party [Sekhon AS
and Dilgeer HS 1999, 2006 A White Paper On Khalistan (A True Story) The
Sikh Nation (ed) A T Kerr ISBN 0-9695964-8-0]. Acting Mukh-Sewadar, or Chief
of Akal Takht Sahib, the Supreme Seat of the Sikh Polity, Amritsar, Singh Sahib
Bhai Gurdev Singh Kounke, was abducted on 20th December 1993, tortured, killed
and his body dumped in a canal on 3rd January 1994.
On
October 27, 1995, the Human Rights activist of the Akali Dal (Badal), Sardar
Jaswant Singh Khalra, was killed at the Chhabal police station, Amritsar. His
body was thrown into the Harike Canal. A police officer, A.S. Sandhu
(supposedly committed suicide), abducted a Sikh religious leader, Charan Singh,
tortured him and was made to dispose of his body. Earlier, the same police
officer had abducted Charan Singh’s brother and his driver. Tying his legs to
two jeeps, which were driven off in opposite directions, killed the latter.
A former
Punjab administration headed by a corrupt Sikh and the traitor of the Sikh
nation alias the “robbed”
Punjab of 15th August, 1947, Prakash Sinh Badal, attacked the Darbar Sahib Complex (mistakenly
known as the Golden Temple Complex) on 7th February, 1998, desecrated its sanctity and deposed
the democratically elected custodian of The Akal Takht Sahib, using his state
powers. The administration of Prakash Sinh Badal, has spent more than 20
million rupees for legal fees to protect the police officers participated in
the genocide of the Sikhs. Voted, under the Constitution of India, which has
been ‘rejected by
the Sikhs repeatedly’, out of the Punjab’s administration, for his maneuvering,
his collision (Badal and associates’) with a party of the Hindu militants and
fundamentalists, the Brahtiya Janata Party (BJP), is back as the Chief of the
Punjab. Badal, is an agent of India’s Research and Analysis Wing (RAW; Gurtej
Singh 2000 Chakarvyuh:
Web of
Indian Secularism
ISBN 81-85815-14-3) and a staunch turbaned Hindu in ‘The Sikh Identity’.
Prakash Badal has kept his lips ‘sealed’ when the Punjab Legislative Assembly
debated the ‘Freedom of Press, news media and the free speech recently (www.rozanaspokesman.com,
8th-13th March, 2008). The freedom of speech and expression are the fundamental
human rights in any democracy. This is the clear reflection of the
democratic or ‘autocratic’ nature of the Badal’s Akali-BJP administration in
Punjab.
These are a
few examples of the democracy of the New Delhi administration’s (NDA) blessed
administration of Prakash Badal and his Akalis alliance with the BJP, in the
Sikhs’ holy and historic Homeland of Sikhs, Punjab.
On
February 6, 2000,
the death of a Dalit youth in police custody in Morinda, Ludhiana, was
horrifying. He was killed in cold blood because he objected to police’s
drinking session at a public place. This incidence revived memories of the dark
period in the history of Punjab when countless innocent young men were killed
in false encounters, but police records turned them into ruthless terrorists.
A
mother of six sons, Bibi Jaswant Kaur, lost her husband in 1987. Three of her six
sons succumbed to tuberculosis. The other three were abducted and killed by
Punjab police. One of the three sons, Pragat Singh, 23-yrs-old, was arrested in
1987, kept in captivity for 14 months. After his release police raided his home
on 9th September 1988, and shot him dead. The eldest son, Jagir Singh,
25-yrs-old, working as a volunteer in a Taran Taran Gurdwara, was taken by the
police and did not return. The youngest son, Mohinder Singh (20-yrs-old) was
with the religious man, Baba Charan Singh (see above). He was abducted by the
police on 14th June 1991 and died in police custody. Jaswant Kaur has tried all
possible avenues to get justice, but has had no luck (jkaurgrewal@yahoo.com;
March 20, 2001; post #4181;
http://www.yahoogroups.com/group/sikhyouth;<http://www.yahoogroups.com/group/sikhyouth>).
Even
outside India, Sikhs being harassed by the Indian government and its allies, according to the Hon
Edolphus Towns, MC (Extensions of Remarks - February 27, 2001). Miscreants
stormed a church and ransacked the premises while a spiritual meeting and
prayers were in progress in Hyderabad, A P (www.burningpunjab.com; 24th March,
2001).
A
group of men killed their rape victim, a mother of seven, in the village of
Singana and then gouged out the eyes of two witnesses in India's lawless
eastern state of Bihar, the Press Trust of India reported Thursday (February 8,
2001; AFP). The rapists then used the woman's sickle to hack her to death. They
then attacked four labourers who witnessed the crime.
Since
1998, Christian
missionaries including one from Australia (Father Graham Stains), his 8- &
10-yr-old sons, and Roman Catholic nuns, have been killed, burnt alive or raped
by the Hindu fundamentalists. The burning, destruction and demolishing of the
Houses of God of the non-Hindu minorities, the Sikh Gurdwaras, Churches and
Mosques, looting and desecrating of the holy and historical places of the
non-Hindu minorities are the modus operandi of successive Indian administrations
and state-sponsored hoodlums (Hon John T Doolittle, MC India Coalition Partner
Threaten To Engulf Country In Violence, House of Representatives, July 27,
2000, The US Congress; Hon Edolphus Towns, MC July 27, 2000. Christian
Persecution in India, House of Representatives, The US Congress).
Militant
Hindu hoodlums in Uttarpara, West Bengal, attacked a train carrying Sikh
pilgrims and the Sikh Holy scriptures, Guru Granth Sahib, in June, 2001. The Hindu
hoodlums stoned the Sikh pilgrims, burned the Holy Scriptures, and tried to set
fire to the train (Press
Release: Council of Khalistan. Train Attack Is Wake-Up Call for Sikh Nation,
June 27, 2001< cok@khalistan.com>). In an affidavit filed on 28th August,
2000, by Mr Sartaj Singh, resident of Kathua, Jammu and Kashmir (under the
occupation of Indian administration), Internationally Disputed areas by the
United Nations (IDA:JK), stated that he was tortured and received painful psychological
harassment by the Indian police. The police personnel wanted him to confess
for the things, which he never did. The police personnel also wanted him to tell the
whereabouts of Neeta alias Ranjit Singh, a freedom fighter, Harbhajan Singh, Gian
Singh and Joginder Singh, who are at large. The police personnel wanted him to
make a false confession that ‘we all know one another’.
Miss
Manorama of Manipur was gang raped by the men of the Assam Rifles and was thrown out of the
headquarters after mutilating her private parts in July, 2004. More recently
(9th February, 2005), a 12-year-old girl was allegedly raped by a constable of
the force in central Assam’s Karbi Anglong district, triggering protests from
women organizations. In a blatant violation of human rights, the district
police today tortured a Dalit youth to death after he refused to accept his
involvement in a theft case (Jalandhar, February 6’ tibruneindia.com).
The
World Kashmir Diaspora Alliance reports that "since the Indian forces
occupation, more than 195,000 innocent Kashmiris have been killed; more than
500,000 have disappeared, and the latter have been killed by the invader's
troops or they have been languishing in Indian jails with no information to
their families. In the last three months, the death toll of the ongoing Kashmiri
unrest is 96, as another youth Yasir Rafiq Sheikh, a cousin of Jammu and
Kashmir Liberation Front chief, Muhammad Yasin Malik, succumbed to his injuries
on late Wednesday night inflicted by the Indian personnel and kept in a New
Delhi hospital. Additionally, at least 10 persons were injured by the alleged
CRPF firing on protesters in Sopur. For the last six days Kashmir is under
curfew round the clock (bangla-vision@yahoogroups.com, 18th September,
2010)." On 9th February, 2013, a Kashmiri named Afzal Guru had been sent to
gallows in Tihar jail, Delhi), buried in the jail, without informing his wife
and family members. The Dal Khalsa Alliance registered a strong protest for
Afzal Guru’s execution.
A
female judge of a session court in the U P State was massively raped. This discerns the
respect of law against the victims of the sexual violations in the
Brahmins-Hindus’ India. The RSS, a Brahmins-Hindus fundamentalist and extremist
political party, the ‘Mother of all evils’, incited ill feelings between the Muslims
and the Sikhs in Saharanpur, U P (Charhdikala, 18-26 August,
2014).
In
the first week of September, 2014, Madam Kanta Chawla of Punjab wrote to the
murderer, killer and carrying out the ‘Genocide of Muslims of Gujarat State,
2002-2003, the then Chief Minister of Gujarat, now the Chief, Council of
Ministers of Indian administration, Narendra Damodar Modi, that anyone raising
the slogan “Khalistan Zindabad alias Long live Khalistan (Khalsa mean
Sovereign and Stan means Land, i.e.,
the Land of Sovereign people) must be prosecuted (Charhdikala 29, September 03-09,
pp11, 26).
The Brahmins-Hindus’ leaders of the fundamentalist and extremist parties are
asked to refrain making inflammatory statements and spew poison on the “Sikhs
and their traditions.”
The
above are only a few of the hundreds of thousands of cases we would like to
bring to your kind attention, your Excellency. We hereby request you to
dispatch a fact finding mission to India to assess in depth the crimes
committed against humanity by armed and law-enforcing agencies in ‘uniforms’
and bring the criminals before the International Court of Justice in the same way
as the UN has done to punish the criminals of the Rwanda and Serbia massacres
in 2000; S. Milosevic of Serbia in July 2001; the former Serb police chief,
Steven Todorovic, who pleaded guilty for torturing, murdering and sexually
assaulting Muslims and Croats (National Post, 1st August, 2001, p
A11); and Radislav Krstic for the Srebrenica genocide of Muslims in 1995 (National
Post, August
3, 2001, p A3). The UN tribunal has taken a landmark decision recently to
include “sex torture as a war crime” (National Post, February, 23, 2001).
Also, the UN Secretary-General (former), His Excellency Kofi Annan’s interview
(Time,
4th September, 2000) will be welcomed by the justice-loving peoples of our
civilized world that “those who commit crimes and those who watch as bystanders
are equally responsible for the crime taking place.” What we have brought to
your attention here, your Excellency, is just the ‘tip of the iceberg’ of the massive human
rights abuses, religious persecution(s), rapes, humiliation, dehumanization and
crimes committed by the state- sanctioned armed personnel of what our civilized
world terms as the “largest democracy” in the world, India. A leading magazine
has pointed out “India is ruled by rascals.” “Many Indians silently
witness their country’s unlawful events. Several members of the ruling party’s
youth wing have in the past been charged with rapes and kidnapping. Officials
respond that all parties have their thugs. Politicians use thugs to capture
polling booths and stuff ballot boxes (The Economist, 15th July, 1995, p.
26).” According to the Hon Dana Rohrabacher, for the Sikhs, Kashmiri Muslims,
and other minorities “India might as well be Nazi Germany” (Press Release: Council
of Khalistan, Washington DC; June 27, 2001
<khalistan@khalistan.com>).
Manmohan
Sinh, the immediate predecessor of the killer, murderer and responsible to
organize the “Genocide of Muslims of the Gujarat State, Narendra Modi, the
present Chief, Council of Ministers. The former Chief, Council of Ministers, India,
had been a non-elected ‘Member of Parliament’ of India, supposed to be an
honest and clean person, delivered his state address before the “World
Conference on Human Rights Delegates in Vienna, Austria, on 24th June (14 to
25th June), 1993. He, then Finance Minister of the PV Rao’s administration,
said that “he being Sikh finds no abuses of Human Rights of Sikhs much
less any minorities in India.” Another person, Shahabuddin, Manmohan Singh’s
colleague of the Islamic faith, said the same of Muslims of India. Abuses of Human Rights in the Sikhs’
holy and historic Homeland,
Punjab, Khalistan (under the Brahmins-Hindus autocracy’s occupation, have been
taking place, since 15th August, 1947). Manmohan Singh’s statement was
‘refuted’ in the strongest possible words by the human rights and peace-loving
citizens (delegates) of North America and elsewhere.”
Your
Excellency, following the execution of “Operation Bluestar” of June, 1984, an
‘undeclared’ war on the Sikh Nation, Punjab, by the Indian armed forces,
according to Sekhon (2009 ISBN 0-9548929-4-1). During “Operation Bluestar, June
1984”, every village of the Sikhs’ holy and historic homeland, Punjab, was
turned into a “Concentration Camp;” ’Open air’ jails were established outside
every village of Punjab. These jails were covered by the barbed wires, in the
heat of June – August months, when the usual temperatures in Punjab are 47C or
more, had been under the supervision of the Indian armed personnel, were no
less than the concentration camps of Adolf Hitler’s times in the Nazi Germany.
These ‘open air’ barbed wire concentration camps/jails were used to prison the
Sikhs indiscriminately regardless of gender and age. Sanitary facilities were
virtually non-existent. This reflects the treatment of Indira Gandhi and her
administration of the Brahmins autocracy to the Sikhs.”
Bibi
Manjit Kaur Dakha (1992): Manjit Kaur Dakha and her husband sought political asylum
in the United States after being tortured by the Indian armed personnel. Mrs.
Dakha, her father, and her 6-mo-old daughter (Bhaghel Kaur) were tortured
mercilessly, given repeated death threats, and her child was made to sit on a
colony of ants by the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF). Mrs Dakha and her
father were made to beat each other with clubs.
Sardar
Surinder Singh Fauji (a retired army personnel), of Fatehabad, Tehsil: Khadur Sahib of
Amritsar district of Punjab, has been physically, mentally and psychologically
tortured by Punjab police since May 27, 1986. Valuable household articles were
stolen by the police personnel from his residence never returned. Despite his
writing to the Prime Minister (PV Rao), Home Minister of India (SB Chawan),
Chief Justice, Supreme Court of India, Chief Justice, Punjab and Haryana High
court, and the Senior Session Judge, Amritsar, there was no relief from the
police excesses.
More
than 35 Sikh youth, including Kanwarpal Singh Bittu and Sarbjit Singh Ghuman of
the Dal Khalsa, were kept in police custody. Similarly, Jagtar Singh Hawara,
his wife and other family members were humiliated (by putting cigarettes and
tobacco in Hawara’s mouth), tortured and harassed by the Punjab and Delhi
police (www.panthic.org 17th July, 2005).
Another
Sikh leader, Daljit Singh Bittu, President, Shromani Akali Dal Panch Pradhani,
and thousand of Sikh youth had been in jails, without trials and crimes.
A
human rights lawyer and prominent Sikh nationalist Harpal Singh Cheema, after
spending eight years in a California jail, whom Judge Dana Keener determined
Singh did not pose a threat to national security. The Hon judge stopped short
of granting him full asylum, but forbade the then-INS from deporting the
couple. Indeed, she noted that Singh “is widely perceived as a moderate and a
voice for reason (Camille T Tairara, Editor, New America Media, News Feature,
Aug 07, 2006). To escape atrocities and persecution during custody of the
Indian law-enforcing personnel until 1992, Mr Cheema and his wife sought asylum
in the United States in1993 (www.news.ncmonline.com/news/views_article.htmal?
Mr Cheema is separated from his wife and son. Both mother and son are too
scared to return to India.
In
February 2010, the Punjab police killed 13 youth in Ludhiana district of
Punjab, while they were participating in the Birthday celebrations of
Shaheed-Bilas Saint-soldier Jarnail Singh Khalsa, Punjab’s political and
religious leader of the 20th century (www.rozananaspokesman.com).
A
mass Grave of Sikhs killed in November 1984 has been discovered after 26 years
in village Hondh-Chillar, District Rewari, Haryana.
The
village was inhabited by several Sikh families. On November 2nd, 1984 in an
organized and well planned attack, the entire village was burnt, along with the
Sikh population and their Gurudwara. The village consisting of torched houses,
a burnt Gurudwara and scattered human bones have now been discovered
(www.punjabspectrum.com, 17th February, 2011).
Speaking
before a judge in Patiala court on 4th February, 2013, Bhai Balwant Singh
Rajoana said: “As far as I am concerned, my arrest on December 22, 1995, from
the Jalandhar Bus Depot is totally false. The story concocted by the Rajpura
Police against me is all fabricated simply to implicate me in a false arrest. I
cannot and will not bow in front of such an unjust judicial system and betray
my brave martyred Sikh brothers. I will not beg for any mercy from this unjust
judicial system and would prefer to go to the gallows with head held high. I
will not ask for mercy for myself but rather ask for freedom and sovereignty
for my Sikh nation [“Robbed” PUNJAB of 15th August, 1947]. My tributes to all
my martyred brothers and sisters.”
It
is learned from highly reliable sources that the Central Reserve Police Force
(CRPF) had been operating at least four deep pans of boiled oil to kill alive
the Sikh youth in Amritsar in the post-undeclared war on the ‘occupied’ Sikh Nation, under the
consent of the then administration of India.
In
the second week of February, 2010, the Punjab police killed 13 youth in
Ludhiana district of Punjab, while they were participating in the Birthday
anniversary celebrations of Shaheed-Bilas Saint-soldier Jarnail Singh Khalsa,
Punjab’s political and religious leader (www.punjabspectrum.com, February 21,
2011). According to the Sikhs for Justice (SFJ), the summons against Congress
have been issued pursuant to a class action lawsuit filed (SFJ v. Congress (I)
SDNY (10 CV 2940)) under Alien Tort Claims Act (ATCA) and Torture Victim
Protection Act (TVPA). The plaintiffs in the case against Congress (I) are
"Sikhs For Justice" (SFJ), a US based human rights group along with
several Sikhs from different states and cities of India who survived attacks in
November 1984 (3rd March, 2011, posted by SFJ on many websites).
Reported
recently (www.facebook.com, 14th March, 2011), a large number of Sikhs gathered
in Gurudwara at Pandri Kattaiyyan 10 km from Nanakmatta, Pilibhit road and 15
kms from Sitarganj. The Gurudwara was locked but ransacked and the Holy
Scripture of Sikhs, Guru Granth Sahib, was set on fire; whereas, two more
copies were ripped off by sharp weapons.
The
majority of farmers in this area are the Sikhs, Muslims and labourers from
Bihar. A Muslim named Mehadi Hassan (MH) was caught stealing the motor from
Gurudawara a couple of days ago. He was handed over to Police. It is reported
his involvement along with his some other Muslim friends, who attacked
Gurudwara Sahib, burnt the Holy Scripture and they cut the pages with sharp
edged weapons. Temporary Granthi/custodian Narinder Singh also hid the truth
because of intimidation. It is understood that some Hindu fundamentalists and
miscreants are involved to incite MH and his associates to create animosity
between the Sikh and Muslim communities of UP and Utrakhand. It has been done
before by the Brahmins- Hindus personnel of the Indian Government in the
occupied-Jammu and Kashmir during President William J Clinton’s state visit to
India. A few weeks earlier in August, 2011 desecration of Sikhs’ Holy Scripture
took place in a town in Hoshiarpur district, Punjab.
Recently,
while the Sikhs had been celebrating the 31st Commemorative anniversary of
“Operation Bluestar” of June 1984, when all means of communications, including
cyber and Internet had been suspended, a Sub-Inspector of Police ripped off the
picture of Saint-Soldier Jarnail Singh Khalsa. The Sikh demonstrators replaced
the portrait with large sized photographs of the Saint-soldier. The
sub-Inspector again tried to rip off the photograph. Some of the demonstrates
warned him not to do so, but he continued his act to do so. Next day, one of
the Sikh demonstrator was killed at the point blank shot by the police in the
IDA:JK.
Recently,
the Vice Chancellor of the Punjab University, invited Professor of Sikhism
Gurtej Singh, to write an invitational article on the ‘Sikh War Code’.
Professor Gurtej Singh’s invitational article was ‘rejected’ on the ground that
certain changes are required before it is accepted for publication by his
university. This is a ‘discrimination’ of Punjab University’s policy against
the Sikhs and the highly esteemed Sikh writer of the international
caliber.
More
than 257,000 Sikh farmers have committed suicide since post-“Operation
Bluestar” era in the ‘robbed’ PUNJAB of 15th August, 1947, because heavy
burdens of the taxes imposed by the administration of Hanera (Prakash) Sinh
Badal (Rozanaspokesman, 29th February, 2012).
Following
offering their “Ardas”, the Sikh prayer offered following the conclusion of the 30th
Commemorative Anniversary of “Operation Bluestat” in The Darbar Sahib Complex.
The Brahmins-Hindus goons in the ‘Sikh garb’ destroyed the peace of the holy
congregation, by wielding their swords in the huge gathering, to disgrace the
Sikhs (Jagbani tv channel of India, Monitored in Canada on 7th June, 2014). The
hoodlums of the Task Force, organized by the Chief of the Punjab’s
administration’s employed caretaker of the Supreme Seat of Sikh Polity, The
Akal Takht Sahib. It is amply clear that the “Brahmins-Hindus” are all out to
defame the Sikhs of the “robbed” PUNJAB and the Diaspora Sikhs. According to
www.facebook.com reports, there have been more than 25 people injured in this
bloody disturbance.
In
the first half of the August, visiting Punjab’s cabinet minister Maluka of
Hanera Sinh Badal’s cabinet, made derogatory remarks on the Canadian police.
The Hon Jason Kenney of the Government of Canada did not like Maluka.s comments

The
‘robed’ Punjab of 15th August, 1947, by the ‘unelected’
Brahmins-Hindus-Turbaned Brahmins, the Chief Minister of Punjab, Hanera
(Prakash) Sinh Badal has been conspiring against the Sikh youth in 1990s to
have them killed by the Punjab police. He did it by meeting the former Butcher
Punjab Chief, KP Gill, at Gill’s residence several times for several hours (KPS Gill, The Paramount Cop
by Rahul Chandan 2015).
A

case as missing person (YesPunjab.com, 3rd September, 2015).
On
11th September, 2015, night, a Gurdwara was damaged and destructed in
Pathankot, Punjab.
Your
Excellancy, Mr Hussein, the Indian democracy has installed a person as its Prime
Minister, who is a killer, murderer and responsible for the “Genocide of
Muslims of Gujarat State, 2002-2003.” This person is Narendra Damodar Modi, the
former Chief Minister, State of Gujarat. More than one-third of the members of
parliament have criminal records. It seems that the ‘criminal activities of
parliamentarians and contesting parliamentary elections’ are acceptable in the
Indian democracy.
