Cmmr Anderson: “Over the last several weeks, Sikh gurdwaras in India have been targeted with vigilante attacks incl. attempts to harm religious leaders. The USG should link security assistance to the Indian gov'ts response to violence that stops people from exercising FoRB.”

#India: We are concerned by reports of mass detentions of demonstrators, protest leaders, members of civil society organisations, lawyers and journalists, before and during today’s large-scale demonstrations in Delhi.
We call on the authorities to ensure that the right to peaceful assembly is fully respected and fulfilled.

At this point the State’s action in India is beyond mere allegations - there are video proofs of Gundas on road (with police’s nudge), cover by the police to such cars with sticks and weapons, testimonies of people who have been detained and being treated like this is British Raj times!
So if the Kanoon Rakshak become Kanoon Bhakshak, who protects us?
But in this entire episode - the way police has reduced to a mere kathputli/ puppet of Modi-Shah is deeply troubling.
Amid a ruckus created by right-wing groups near Connaught Place, reporters and photographers confronted Delhi Police personnel who were attempting to clear a crowd gathered around a car.
The journalists repeatedly urged the police to inspect the vehicle, particularly its boot, which allegedly contained several sticks. They also questioned why the occupants were carrying sticks in the car.
However, instead of inspecting the vehicle or questioning its occupants, the police allowed the car to speed away.
The incident unfolded amid the continuing police crackdown on protesters demonstrating against Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar in central Delhi.

✍🏾 Indian Supreme Court Justice Kuldip Singh once said, “A three-year-old child cannot be a ‘terrorist.’ This is worse than genocide.”
We will never forget the innocent Sikhs who were killed at the hands of Indian security forces.

Will the Assembly’s Select Committee, chaired by AAP MLA Inderbir S Nijjar, finally make the complete Justice Gurnam Singh Judicial Inquiry Report into the 1986 Saka Nakodar police killings public?
And, after all these years, will those responsible finally be brought to justice?

After 3 long decades, why Akali Dal is facing questions over Jaswant Singh Khalra?

✍🏾The chief minister [Beant Singh] told the [Punjab] state assembly that more than 41,000 bounty payments were made between 1991 & 1993.
How many of those killings were ever independently investigated?
How many victims were wrongly identified?
History still deserves answers
How many died in Punjab insurgency? As Satluj ignites debate, demand for a ‘truth commission’

When the state kills and then protects its own for 40 years, it isn’t delay—it’s impunity.
One father still demands accountability.

A still from Punjab ‘95 showing Jaswant Singh Khalra visiting a crematorium in Tarn Taran. By counting those suspiciously burnt by the Punjab police, Khalra was able to uncover a vast network of extrajudicial killings in the state.
Director Honey Trehan speaks about how the CBFC and MIB ensured that Punjab '95, a biopic of human rights activist Jaswant Singh Khalra's fight, would never be released. Read the entire interview by @jatinder_tur: caravanmagazine.in/film/punj…
