Khalistan separatists are looking to take the ISI’s Kashmir route in India
2021-01-01
[OneIndia] Over the past few weeks, the agencies, the National Investigation Agency in particular has swung into action to bust modules relating to the Khalistan movement. Last wee an absconding Khalistan terrorist Gurjeet Singh Nijjar, who was hiding in Cyprus (Europe) was arrested at New Delhi Airport by the National Investigation Agency.

For the the past couple of years, several attempts have been made to set up modules in Punjab
1.) Little Orphan Annie's bodyguard
2.) A province of Pakistain ruled by one of the Sharif brothers

#6   but I wanted to stick up for my friends.

Ditto for the ones I have met here in Cincinnati. But the Sikhs in the article seem like the cadre of IRA bad boys back home as compared to all the lovely Irish descendants over here.

#5  Well, non Muslims, as you say, tw. No doubt there is a religious element in Sikh militancy, but I can’t call it jihad.
Formidable people, individually and collectively. They have been peaceful - or pacified- for a long while, on the Indian side, at least. No doubt both sides are using the other (on thePak side) This report is not good news.
I admit to a personal interest- there is a Sikh community in my part of ther world, the North coast of NSW,, Australia.. They came out here after the war to farm bananas at a little town called Woolgoolga, and from the beginning were respected and welcomed as hard working, absolutely honest people. My grandfather, not the easiest man to please, preferred gangs of Sikh cane cutters on our family sugar cane farm- they were such good workers.
And since then I have found myself liking much about the many Sikhs I have met. Bagwhant and Balbir, our next door neighbors in another little country town, lovely people.
I’m rambling a bit- it’s 3.35 am here! - but I wanted to stick up for my friends.
Thanks, tw.

#4   I would not call the Sikhs jihadis.

They are not Muslims, to be sure, but they appear to be willing to act as sock puppets for Pakistan’s ISI against India. How would you describe them, Grunter?

#3  From Wikipedia, a Sikh War may mean: The Mughal-Sikh Wars, The Afghan–Sikh Wars. The Gurkha-Sikh War (1809) The Sino-Sikh War (1841-1842) The First Anglo-Sikh War (1845–1846) The Second Anglo-Sikh War (1848–1849) The Sikh Empire dissolved after 1849.
