Pioneer News Service | Jalandhar
The Sikhs are not happy with India and they await their tryst with destiny under a new dispensation was the message emanating from the seminar organised by the Dal Khalsa to deliberate on 60 years of Sikhs in India at a local hotel here on Wednesday.
A galaxy of Sikh scholars and political leaders present at the meet repeatedly castigated the Indian Government for incriminating against the Sikh people.
In a novel way to present their case, the Dal Khalsa presented a list of 60 incidents and cases of discrimination and proposed to take up these cases at an appropriate international forum in the future for justice to the Sikhs. Newspapers, magazines and television channels are filled with euphoria about the years gone by. 60 heroes of India, 60 books of India, 60 leaders of India, 60 achievements of India, 60 sportspersons of India, Is this the complete picture? How about 60 incidents that will put India to shame", said one of the resolution.
The 60-point list called a charge sheet against the Indian Government states that<b> "Guru Nanak challenged the fundamentals of Brahaminism and other schools of social, religious and cultural domination. This confrontation continues. The Sikh religion-political ideology is clear and unambiguous. The Sikhs are sovereign people. The Sikh nation crafted and nurtured by the Gurus can grow and prosper in an environment devoid of hindrances and subjugation. The Sikh people will not submit itself to another State authority. This is the genesis of the Sikh case." </b>
Dal Khalsa president Satnam Singh Paonta while speaking on the occasion appealed to the audience for support for Dal Khalsa in their holy pursuit for the glory of Khalsa and the re-establishment of Sarkar-e-Khalsa. Another leader of the Dal Khalsa Harcharnjit Singh DhamiKanwar Pal Singh said it was ironic that Sikhs were being treated has a second class citizen, rather like slaves. Installing individuals at the higher ranking constitutional post is a ploy to deceive the world that the country was "secular" in real sense, he pointed out.
The message of Gajinder Singh, an exiled leader of the Dal Khalsa was also read. Sikhs had paid heavy price for nurturing ambition to rule that was rooted in their history and psyche, said SGPC member Karnail Singh Panjoli.
Former MP Harinder Singh Khalsa and former minister Manjit Singh calcuta also addressed the gathering. Gurdharshan Singh Dhillon and Karamjit Singh (Sikh intellectuals) also spoke on the occasion. Kanwar Singh Dhami, Dalbir Singh and Gurbachan Singh.
