As soon as I posted the post above, I received this message. Sikhs aren’t even allowed to speak freely, while people from other communities are free to issue threats and hurl abuses at others on @X. 🤔
Now even the national media is reporting on the state’s aggression, the beating of the ‘Sikh community’ with batons, and some police personnel injuring themselves while using them.
#Ambala#Sikhs
At least six police personnel, including a DSP, were injured when a protest by #Sikh groups over the arrest of two youths turned violent in #Ambala, prompting police to use lathicharge and tear gas to clear a six-hour blockade of NH-44.

Being Bilingual is such a flex.
Here i am being interviewed by a News channel in India (remember reach can be 1.6bill).
They are asking me why Indian women are being attacked in Britain and im explaining how racism is basically being normalised by our very own politicians and the rise of the far right
@nottyrubi@kingkapoor72 As Sikhs, we believe in respecting all religions, so just confirming. And no, it's not directly equivalent to the Christian concept of holy water. I asked bc, in an X Space, he specifically referred to it as Christians' holy water, & I'm pretty sure he would never call it "Amrit"

There is a campaign to create a "Sikh-Mukt Punjab" by 2045.
Sikh conversions are in full swing, and those who do not convert are being targeted through drugs. Those who remain should stay vigilant, because threats of repeating 1984 against Sikhs have become increasingly common.
And the reason for this is the Modi government at the Centre. It's not that the government lacks the capability, resources, or technology to stop drugs from entering across the border.
पंजाब के खिलाफ एक षड्यंत्र रचा जा रहा है।
The thing is, today Punjab is more unsafe than Kashmir.
At least in Kashmir, the presence of security forces can provide a sense of safety. In Punjab, even that doesn't always feel like a guarantee...
I'm glad that RW influencers are speaking about this.
#Punjab, the state with the largest #Sikh population, has been made unsafe SPECIFICALLY FOR SIKHS, not for everyone. If Punjab were unsafe for everyone, migrant workers wouldn't keep moving there.
@garrywalia_ He is telling the truth. No group claimed responsibility, and eyewitnesses only said that the attackers were wearing turbans. They were never caught because they had disguised their identities. The police kept looking for Sikhs, but the attackers were not Sikhs.
