Amritsar: Dal Khalsa has decided to hold a convention to assess the current national and international situations and challenges being faced by Sikh Nation world over, and to formulate a new strategy to deal with those challenges and to take the Sikh struggle to its logical conclusion.
This convention will be held on December 5 at Moga, in which the parties actively working on Panthic turf will be invited.
The Sikh organisation extended congratulations to President-elect Donald Trump on his re-election as president of the United States. We hope and expect that Mr. Trump will curtail and convince his Indian counterpart Narendra Modi to put a break and withdraw extrajudicial and extraterritorial operations targeting the Khalistani activists.
The announcement was made by party’s working president Paramjit Singh Mand, Political Affairs Secretary Kanwar Pal Singh and general secretary Paramjit Singh Tanda at a press conference here today.
They said that the violent transnational repression policy to target pro-freedom Sikhs by extrajudicial methods is in place despite it being exposed at international level and condemned by a five eyes alliance named US, UK, Australia, New Zealand and Canada.
Reiterating the importance of the convention, Mand said that the Sikhs as a community will have to take a decision as to how long they will continue to tolerate the target killing of Sikhs in Punjab and abroad. How long they will allow the Indian rulers to divide the people of Punjab in the name of religion, caste, and race.
Referring to the clash between Khalistani supporters and pro-India activists in Canada, Kanwar Pal Singh said the scuffle was twisted by the Indian leadership, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi, with a design to portray that Sikhs were anti-Hindus aimed to widen the gap between Hindus and Sikhs, but the intelligent section of both Hindus & Sikhs intervened in time to prevent the government’s mischief gameplan to succeed.
Those handful of Sikhs who protested yesterday outside Canadian embassy at Delhi were stooges of Modi dispensation and are on payroll of agencies. They were giving bad name to Sikh community.
He said that exactly one month after the victory of the farmers’ andolan, the nefarious attempt by India’s Deep State to desecrate the holiest place of Sikhs, the Darbar Sahib, inflicted pain and wounds on the Sikh conscience. The incident made us understand that in this Hindu-India, neither the religion of Sikhs was safe nor the existence and identity of Sikhs. He said that the ban on wearing kirpan by amritdhari Sikhs at the airport was also a sign of the same.
The leaders were of the view that this illegal notice of civil aviation ministry is repeat of 2022 notice which was withdrawn after Sikhs objected to it. It has been issued again and to our mind, it’s a fallout of Indo-Canada standoff to which Sikhs are a main party. Govt is playing cheap tactics to force Sikhs to beg before them for every right, said they.
Commenting on the traditional reactions of the Sikh leadership, he said that whenever the government of Delhi bullies or abuses the Sikhs religiously, culturally, politically or economically, the leaders of the Sikh organizations say that this incident has realized the Sikhs realize that they were slaves in India. He questioned those Sikh leaders who are at the helm of affairs that how long will the Sikhs continue to tolerate the insult of Guru Granth and Guru Panth in this country.
