Proud that Connecticut recognized November 1st as Sikh Genocide Remembrance Day in 2018. As we mark 42 years since the 1984 Sikh Genocide, we remember the victims, honor the survivors, and stand united for justice.
The Sikh spirit cannot be silenced!

Commissioner @DrJuthani had a busy day of tours in Norwich this week!
Earlier this week, Commissioner Juthani had the opportunity to tour Backus Hospital alongside @HartfordHealthC leaders and Norwich Mayor Swarnjit Singh. The visit provided an opportunity to learn more about the important work taking place at the hospital and throughout the Norwich community.
The day also included a special visit to Norwich’s @SikhArtGallery, where Mayor Singh personally shared more about the gallery and its work with Commissioner Juthani.
Thank you to Hartford HealthCare and Mayor Singh for their warm welcome and gracious hospitality!

On September 27, 2019, Deputy Sandeep Dhaliwal was fatally shot during a traffic stop. He was known for his sense of humor and ability to make personal connections with his fellow deputies and the community he served. Gone but never forgotten.
This is anti-Sikh, but just as importantly, anti-American.
America was built by immigrants. Its promise is that opportunity belongs to all of us, no matter where we were born.
The moment we say, “No, it’s not for you,” we open the door to saying that to everyone.
*"AMERICA FOR AMERICANS...SELF-DEPORT MR SINGH"*
USA Homeland Security, the department of American government in charge of domestic security, released a poster today depicting a brown bearded man with a headcovering, along with text saying "you don't know how to drive Mr Singh".

The Department of Homeland Security posted several disgusting and discriminatory social media posts today attacking the Sikh community, and I'm outraged.
Stockton is proud to be home to the nation's first Sikh Gurdwara, and our community is made stronger by the contributions of our Sikh neighbors.
No one deserves to be targeted by Washington politicians because of their faith or name. Taking these posts down is not enough. Whoever allowed this to happen should be fired.
Mayor Swarnjit Singh retweeted
This anti-Sikh rhetoric is bigoted, un-American, and has no place in our country.
New Jersey is proud to be home to one of the largest Sikh American communities in the nation. Our Sikh neighbors make our state stronger – and we will always stand with them against hate.
Mayor Swarnjit Singh retweeted
The administration and DHS make no effort to hide their obvious bigotry, casting suspicion on millions of Americans based on their background and appearance, in this case, the Sikh community.
DHS’s grotesque advertising campaign is hateful, disgraceful, and un-American.

An exciting day in Norwich. I joined Mayor Singh and President of the Norwich Community Development Corporation Kevin Brown to celebrate $600,000 in federal Community Project funding to enhance the public docks at Howard T. Brown Memorial Park. I worked with the City of Norwich to secure this funding which supports the dock replacement project with enhanced pedestrian, kayak, canoe, and paddleboard access to the docks.

Bell ringing 250th celebration in Norwich with Mayor Singh & wonderful community. Recitations, music, remarks & bells—all made it special.

The sickening threats and hateful rhetoric directed toward Mayor Singh and his family have no place in eastern Connecticut. Sikh families are a valued part of our diverse community.
As a nation, we must work to root out discrimination against Sikh Americans and all forms of religious bigotry.
I know Mayor Singh is a strong public servant and will be more determined than ever to do the job of Mayor. I am behind him 100%.

I’m proud to stand with my friend Mayor Swarnjit Singh and condemn these racist, threatening remarks in the strongest possible terms. This kind of hatred has no home in Norwich or anywhere in Connecticut. Grateful to the Norwich PD and FBI for their swift action.
