Who is the prolific Sikh writer K.P.S. Gill? What is the Babbar Khalsa International, and what is its relationship to the "council of khalistan"? What is the Akali Dal, and why does your dear Dr. Aulakh hate it?

Why do you continue to post false propaganda from an organization working for Punjabi terrorists?

This outfit is a mere Pawn in the Islamic Terrorism emanating from Pakistan, into India, Nepal, Burma, Bangladesh, etc. I am sure this law is aimed at the Islamics and as well as the Sikh extremists, if they still happen to be a threat.

As far as 200,000 Christians being killed in India, this obvious and indicates what kind of Islamic-sponsored propoganda we're up against!

Here are the sites with some interesting info. on who these people are and on Pakistan's involvement. This Khalistan group, however, seems irrelevant.

Pakistan's ISI Trying To Revive Militancy in Punjab

...The security forces arrested a number of Punjab terrorists both within and outside the State. Among those arrested were cadres of Pakistan-sponsored Islamic terrorist organisations whose chief area of operation is in the State of Jammu and Kashmir. In Batala, Punjab, security forces arrested three Harkat-ul-Jehad-I-Islami (HUJI) cadres in July.

K.P.S. Gill is not a writer that I know of; he is the former police chief of Punjab, and a brutal one who presided over the deaths of thousands and took roughly the same action against the killers as the Catholic archdicese of Boston took against the child abusing priests -- i.e., transferring them somewhere lese where they could do their damage on new victims.

There is absolutely no relationship between Babbar Khalsa International and Council of Khalistan. Period. BKI is a militant organization, and the Council of Khalistan explicitly rejects militancy.

The Akali Dal was at one time the Sikh national political party. It has been infiltrated like many organizations and taken over by Indian government bootlickers. It no longer serves teh interest of its constitutency.

The fact is that the Akalis are in coalition with the Hindu nationalists. The Akali government was the most corrupt in Punjab's history. The Akalis -- all factions -- have not used their elective offices to advance Sikh interests. This is why they were massively rejected.

The Akali government in Punjab came to power on three promises: to bring the police officials who had committed atrocities and other acts of repression to justice; to appoint a commission to investigate allegations of police abuse; and to free political prisoners. They did none of these things. Now they are no longer in power. They would not even release their own report on the murder of Akal Takht Jathedar Gurdev Singh Kaunke, who was the highest-ranking Sikh religious leader. Captain Amarinder Singh, the new Chief Minister, has been asked to release it. Let's see if he does so. Presumably, it implicates high-ranking police officials in the Kaunke murder, including Swaran Singh Ghotna, a former SSP.

Why do you continue to post false propaganda from an organization working for Punjabi terrorists?

As I pointed out, it is your statement that the Council of Khalistan is "an organization working for Punjabi terrorists" that is false propaganda. The Council has repeatedly rejected militancy and terrorism from any quarter and has repeatedly called for a peaceful, democratic, nonviolent movement to liberate Khalistan. You don't have to agree with them, but be honest about the organization's goals and methods.

I believe this is the same kind of movement that Gandhi led for the liberation of India from the British. Was he a terrorist?
