Terming Canadian Defence Minister Harjit Sajjan a “Khalistani sympathiser”, Punjab Chief Minister Amarinder Singh today said he would not meet him during his expected visit to India later this month. “Harjit Sajjan is a Khalistani sympathiser and so was his father,” the Chief Minister alleged during a programme in a private TV channel. “There were, in fact, five ministers in the Justin Trudeau government who were Khalistani sympathisers and I will not have any truck with them,” he claimed.

On the issue of beef ban, the Punjab Chief Minister said, people has the right to and should be allowed to eat whatever they want. Amarinder also made it clear he was not in favour of a ban on Pakistani artistes, and said he would be happy to invite them to Punjab and would also love to visit Pakistan again.

Urging New Delhi to be wary of China on the other border, he said it is time to mend fences and make friends with Pakistan.

Recalling England’s ‘War of Roses’, the Chief Minister said the India-Pakistan tension is going the same way and needs to give way to peace.

Asserting that there a deliberate malicious attempt by vested interests to pull down Rahul Gandhi, he urged the people to give the Congress vice president a chance.

Amarinder said he had always found Rahul Gandhi extremely perceptive and willing to listen, besides being open to suggestions and ideas. He admitted that the AAP had posed a challenge in the recently-concluded assembly polls, and claimed that their failure to project a Punjabi for the Chief Minister’s post cost them heavy

AAP had no future unless they change their style of functioning, the Chief Minister said and states have to work with the Centre and it is important to maintain a working relationship.

Amarinder claimed that He had excellent relations with the previous NDA government at the Centre during his last tenure as the Chief Minister of Punjab.

Referring to his government’s crackdown on drugs, he said with the STF launching a crackdown, things were moving in the right direction.

Hundreds of youngsters were voluntarily coming to the rehabilitation centres and the anti-drugs helpline had so far received more than 4,000 calls, Amarinder said

He, however, ruled out formation of an Unified Command of the northern Indian states, including Jammu and Kashmir, to fight drugs and terrorism.

Responding to a question, Amarinder said though the NIA had given a clean chit to former Gurdaspur SP Salwinder Singh in the Pathankot terror attack, he had not done the same and would bring the police officer to book.

On the contentious SYL issue, the Chief Minister reiterated his stand that the state had no water to spare and pointed out that even Prime Minister Narendra Modi had taken note of his concern on the issue.

“They had prevailed upon the government to prevent my entry into Canada, where I wanted to go to meet my Punjabi brethren and not to campaign for elections,” he was quoted as saying in a release issued by his team after the programme.

Amarinder, whose poll campaign in Canada was stalled last year in the run-up to the Punjab assembly elections, had responded by accusing some Canadian ministers of having “Khalistani leanings” then too. The Canadian defence minister is expected to travel to India this month in his first visit since his appointment as minister

On bans

Amarinder was candid on other issues too. Asked about beef ban, he said people had the right to, and should be allowed to, eat whatever they wanted.

The CM also said that he was not in favour of a ban on Pakistani artistes, and said he would be happy to invite them to Punjab and would also love to visit Pakistan again. “It is time to mend fences and make friends with Pakistan,” he said, urging New Delhi to be wary of China on the other border.

On Rahul

As for his party, seeing a “deliberate malicious attempt” by vested interests to pull down Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi, Amarinder also urged the people to give him (Rahul) a chance. There is a clear conspiracy against Rahul who is being targeted with ridiculous names, he said.

Captain said that he had always found Rahul “extremely perceptive” and willing to listen, besides being open to suggestions and ideas.

On EVMs

On the controversial issue of possible tampering of electronic voting machines, Amarinder said had the EVMs been tampered with in Punjab, he would “not be sitting here today”. However, he was quick to note that it was important to find out the reason for many advanced countries refusing to adopt EVMs.

If only maps could be drafted in wishful posts on an internet forum by anonymous posters.

You obviously have no clue to what you're talking about. The map proves to you that Khalistan doesn't want Lahore, nor Lahore want to be apart of Khalistan.

Lahore is to stay with Pakistan, and the Muslims.

You wish it wouldn't.

You think if a Khalistan is formed, the Sikhs won't fight for their holiest shrine? and Lahore? Lahore has been their home for centuries.

Nankana Sahib is to sikhs what Mecca and Madina is to Muslims.

You think the Sikhs won't ask for Nankana Sahib and Lahore?

You seriously believe what you're saying. If you do, lemme know. Apprise me of your intellect.

Pakistan already facilitates Sikhs to visit holy sites in those city today, so in all likelihood we would just form an agreement with a Khalistan state to let them visit their holy places.

As for your other points Mr.intellectual;

Nankana Sahib and Lahore are both majority Muslim even during British rule, if it was the 'Mecca and Medina' of Sikhs why did so many of them leave during partition?

Khalistani leaders have time and time again requested Pakistani help, why would they ask for help from a country that they also want territory from?

Lahore was a part of the Sikh Empire, and Nankana Sahib is the birthplace of Guru Nanak, but where have Sikh leaders or Sikh scripture ever stated that these places must be under the control of Sikhs?

Because Sikhs hate Muslims. Sikhism took birth to protect the Hindus from the Islamic invaders from the west.

So you would agree that Palestine's claim on Temple Mount is invalid?
 
You do realize that any fire for the realization of Khalistan is bound to spread to Lahore and (at the very least) to Nankana Sahib as well?

Are you willing to give Sikhs their holiest shrine of Nankana Sahib in Khalistan? What about Lahore which has historically been home to Sikhs?

Are you willing to give these to the Sikhs?

yes we are

Ok, let there be Khalistan state first and then we can talk about Lahore as well. Baby steps.
 
This thread has already gone off the rails...

Nevertheless, so the Punjab CM will not meet the Canadian defense minister. So what. What difference will it make? He's meeting defense ministry officials to talk matters that are, hopefully, of mutual interests.
