While #Khalistan #separatists among #Sikh diaspora in #Canada try to export #secessionist ideology to #India, #Akali Sikhs are joining the party of #IndiraGandhi who launched #OperationBlueStar to flush Khalistani terrorists out of #GoldenTemple and was subsequently assassinated by her own Sikh bodyguards 40 years ago.

Rightful slap in the face of foreign #Khalistani elements

#BBC has an accurate and historically correct description of #Khalistan secessionist movement in #India and its recent revival in #US & #Canada.

It was a #terrorist movement that caused 1000s of deaths in 1980s

In #OperationBlueStar, Indian army stormed #GoldenTemple to flush out militants holed up inside

PM #IndiraGandhi was assassinated by her own #Sikh bodyguards for that

ALL mainstream political parties, incl in #Punjab, are united in opposition to separatism.

Although #AP describes #Khalistan as a bloody armed #insurgency that shook #India in the 1970s and 1980s, it distorts it as #independence movement

AP acknowledges: “In 1984, Indian forces stormed the #GoldenTemple to flush out #separatists who had taken refuge there”

“The dead included #Sikh militant leader Jarnail Singh #Bhindranwale… leading the armed insurgency”

PM #IndiraGandhi, who ordered #OperationBlueStar was later assassinated by her own Sikh bodyguards

What to know about the Sikh independence movement following US accusation that activist was targeted

The U.S. has charged an Indian national in what prosecutors allege was a failed plot to assassinate a Sikh separatist at the behest of an unnamed Indian government official. The charges announced Wednesday against an Indian national arrested in June in Europe come two months after Canada's prime minister said there were credible accusations that India may have been linked to the killing of a Sikh activist near Vancouver, straining relations between the two countries. The U.S. case is particularly sensitive given the high priority that President Joe Biden has placed on improving ties with India and courting it to be a major partner in the push to counter China’s increasing assertiveness. India has outlawed the Sikh independence movement.

#Khalistan is #secessionist

When #BritishIndia was partitioned in 1947 on #Hindu-#Muslim lines, #Punjab was part of #independent #India & remains its integral part

India is NOT “occupying” it. #Sikhs don’t identify with Muslims

Egged on by #Pakistan, the #separatist movement ran a decade-long #terror campaign in India under Sikh militant leader #Bhindranwale, who was killed in #OperationBlueStar when India flushed terrorists hiding in & using #GoldenTemple as their command & control center
