Amritsar (February 04, 2011): Notwithstanding that India is a democratic country, the Dal Khalsa has warned the Indian politicians especially corrupt ones to learn lessons from political upheaval in Cairo.
Terming the revolt in Egypt as significant and path breaking, the organization has called upon the international community and the Indian government to support people’s uprising aimed to dislodge the corrupt and authoritarian regime of Hosni Mubarak.
Expressing its support for Egyptians’ desire to rid themselves of corrupt and autocratic regime of Mubarak, the spokesman of the party Kanwar Pal Singh took a dig at government of India for hesitating in supporting the people’s movement in Cairo. He hailed US President Barack Obama for calling Mubarak that a transition to representative government must begin now. “Indian Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh should also take firm stance on the issue”, said he.
Back home, he blamed the political class of all shades for ruining the economy of the (India) country to satisfy their personal greed’s. The entire political system has been so badly corrupted that there are few takers of “clean image of Dr Manmohan Singh”.
Drawing parallels with Mubarak, he alleged that Badals too have amassed fortunes of billions for his family since he grabbed power. “The entire family of Badal has become symbol of excess and corruption in Punjab”, said he.
