Fatehgarh Sahib. August.23, 2019: Twenty one member Committee formed by Jathedar Jagtar Singh Hawara took out a Khalsa March from Gurudwara Fatehgarh Sahib to Chandigarh in protest against the discrimination against Sikhs by both the Union and State Governments and to arrest and punish the culprits of Bargari and Behbal Kalan. The march will culminate at Chandigarh after presenting memorandum to Governor Punjab regarding the Sikh demands and to settle Sikh issues.
Addressing the media persons at Gurudwara Sahib Prof. Baljinder Singh Official Spokesperson of the Committee said that they are taking out the Khalsa march to highlight that the culprits of Behbal Kalan and Bargari, who indulged in sacrilege of Guru Granth Sahib and killing of Sikhs have neither been booked nor arrested. He alleged the then CM Badal was responsible and Sikhs can't forget the role of Dera Premis and of Badal family in these issues. Lashing out at Congress Govt. he said Capt. Amrinder Singh politicalised the issued and by raising the sentiments of Sikhs, he formed the Govt. but now he is running away from taking any action and for eye wash he formed the Committee. He warned that their struggle will continue till all the culprits are not arrested and Sikhs don't get justice.
He warned both the governments not to discriminate with Sikhs and to change their attitude; otherwise they will be forced to revolt. He demanded that all the Sikh detainees, who have completed their sentence and are still languishing in jails should be immediately released. The political Sikh detainees should be bringing back to State jails from other States. The State should ensure that no drop of water from State should flow to other States and the loot of farmers should be stopped. He claimed that the people from all religions Sikhs, Hindu, Muslims and Christians are participating in Khalsa March.
