This is a translation of the ardaas prayer I offered last night at the RNC Convention. Sikhism is a monotheistic faith—we believe in one God, the same God other monotheistic faiths worship. I am deeply touched & grateful for the thousands of positive messages I have received. 🙏🏼

@APSWasi This woodblock painting is by Charles William Bartlett, an English painter who visited Amritsar in 1913. In 1919, he created a few woodblock paintings in a Japanese style depicting scenes from Amritsar. His initials and name can be seen in the lower left corner.

A new coordinated network of fake accounts pretending to be ‘Real Sikhs’ is targeting activists, stoking tensions and promoting Indian Govt narratives.

Who are they, what do they post, and how do they spread their campaign? Report: https://t.co/kcWQkMNrCH

What’s happening in India right now, @RoKhanna ? Are you concerned about turning off the internet in Punjab, shooting protesters, gov’t officials whipping up hatred against farmer protestors? What about the government ordering @x not show the accounts of journalists, activists?

The reason is because the Indian government has today shot a young protester in the back of his head killing him. He is one of the many hundreds of thousands protesting at he Farmers Protest #FarmersProtest2024

[Saffron Studios @SaffronStudios]

A young protestor named Shubkaran Singh, age 23 years, Village Baloana, Bathinda killed at the Punjab Haryana Khanauri Border. He was shot in the head.

Another protestor who was shot in the thigh is seriously injured.

Several other protestors injured at the #FarmersProtest2024

[Global Government Affairs @GlobalAffairs]

The Indian government has issued executive orders requiring X to act on specific accounts and posts, subject to potential penalties including significant fines and imprisonment. 

In compliance with the orders, we will withhold these accounts and posts in India alone; however, we disagree with these actions and maintain that freedom of expression should extend to these posts.

Consistent with our position, a writ appeal challenging the Indian government's blocking orders remains pending. We have also provided the impacted users with notice of these actions in accordance with our policies.

Due to legal restrictions, we are unable to publish the executive orders, but we believe that making them public is essential for transparency. This lack of disclosure can lead to a lack of accountability and arbitrary decision-making.

British Sikh activist Avtar Khanda was on a hit list of India's "most wanted." Then all of a sudden he died - just as another Sikh activist was assassinated in Canada/the FBI foiled a plot to kill a third in NYC. Are you sure he died of leukaemia @RishiSunak @TomTugendhat ?
