Hoshiarpur, Punjab (February 13, 2014): Dal Khalsa slammed Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal and his predecessor Captain Amrinder Singh for washing dirty linen in public. The organization said by engaging in a diatribe against each other both the leaders were exonerating and diminishing the acts and misdeeds of the real perpetrator (Indian state) of June and November 1984 painful episodes.
Party head H S Dhami and spokesperson Kanwar Pal Singh said both were displaying typical tribal mindset; trying to show other in bad light with a sole aim to deceive the electorate. “Both played bad, opportunistic and compromised politics changing stripes and political colors every then and now”, said they.
To a question about Akali leadership holding parleys with Indira Gandhi and her deputies, they said Indira wanted Akalis to pursue Sant Jarnail Singh Bhindrawale to vacate Darbar Sahib, to which Akalis refused or were not in a position to do so, whatever could be the reason. They said Indira never wanted to resolve contentious issues with Sikhs nor she offered any honorable resolution to Punjab problem. Instead of finding any political solution to the conflict, she resorted to army action and committed sacrilege for which she had to pay the price with her life”.
In order to put the record straight, they castigated Akalis for describing the operation Blue Star and Nov killings has handiwork of Congress alone. “The army stormed Darbar Sahib on the orders of Prime Minister of Hindustan and not the Congress party”. In Delhi and elsewhere, the killings of 3000 Sikhs, burning of Gurdwara’s, dishonouring of Sikh women could have never been possible, had the state machinery, administration and police not colluded with the Congress.
”Involvement of hardcore elements of the RSS was dead sure, they said and added that denying this hard fact may be the political compulsion of Badal but not of the Sikhs”.
On the alleged secret meeting between Indira Gandhi and Badal, they said latter’s role has always been dubious and suspicious. Badal’s close links with corridors of power in South and North block has always been talk of the town in the Sikh masses. “That’s the reason he has always been considered as best bet in Punjab by New Delhi”.
They added that Badal’s proximity with state machinery even after “Blue Star” was evident. He has trusted those officers to lead the police force who were infamous for unleashing terror on one and all- militants, political dissenters and common men.
