New Delhi, India: The Delhi Sikh Gurdwara Management Committee (DSGMC) today staged huge protest outside the headquarters of Central Bureau of investigation (CBI) against the move of CBI to give clean chit to Sikh genocide accused Jagdish Tytler in a November 1984 anti-Sikh massacre related case. Thousands of innocent Sikhs were done to death in brutal manner in Delhi and simultaneously in other parts of India in first week of November 1984.
Protesters raised slogans against the CBI and Congress party for shielding Jagdish Tytler. Speaking on the occasion, President of DSGMC Manjit Singh GK said that the clean chit to Jagdish Tytler was atrocious given in most arbitrary manner. He alleged that CBI at the behest of the congress party which was heading the government of India for ten years till 2014 never conducted thorough investigations against the genocide accused who are a part of congress party. “It is really painful that even 30 years after the genocide justice to Sikhs is still a distant dream,” said DSGMC president.

As the protesters tried to break away the barriers placed the Delhi police, the police used water cannon to stop protesters from entering the CBI headquarters in which number of protesters suffered injuries. Despite being stopped by Delhi police the protesters managed to reach the main gate of CGO complex. Later the Delhi police arrested DSGMC president, general secretary Manjinder Singh Sirsa and former MLAs Harmeet Singh Kalka and Jatinder Singh Shanty and took them to the Lodhi police station.
Maintaining his traditions tone and pretending as if Congress party was something out of Indian state system, and further that as if only the Congress party and not the Indian state system was responsible for Sikh genocide of 1984, Manjit Singh GK, president of DSGMC said: “Jagdish Tytler led mobs to kill innocent Sikhs at the behest of Congress party leadership of 1984 and the congress party made all efforts to save Tytler and other leaders of its party accused of killing innocent Sikhs”. He added that CBI has filed a closure report in the trial court in the month of December last year in a most secret manner giving clean chit to Tytler, and the court also took it into its record.
DSGMC president demanded that the court should reject the closure report of CBI against Jagdish Tytler.
Calling the investigations carried by CBI as lopsided because a number of witnesses were never heard, Manjit Singh GK sought directions of the court to CBI to examine the left out witnesses and draft a strong chargesheet against Tytler because the fact can never be denied that Tytler had no role in the anti Sikh genocide of 1984 which is the worst and most brutal incident of recent times.
