Stand with Punjab.
mass arrests of sikh activists are taking place in punjab. at least 78 people taken. internet and SMS have been shut down in areas along with crackdowns on gatherings. sikh media outlets and pages have been blocked.
Mass arrests/detentions including that potentially of S. Amritpal Singh, disconnection of internet services on the eve of Khalsa Vaheer & S. Shubhdeep Singh Moosewala’s Barsi- both democratic events we support- have caused panic and confusion amongst masses and are condemned.
