Unfortunately, given the very demographics of the illiterate South Asian society, it is very easy to influence people in killing for religion. That is all about Khalistani movement I have to say.
Lets talk about khalistan and what would it be even if it was formed. Khalistan would be a land locked country between Indian and Pakistan.
Do I have to repeat BETWEEN INDIA AND PAKISTAN. Probably the world place for a country to exist.
Next, since it a land locked country, and has no escape routes, practically Khalistanis will have to chose one out of India and Pakistan and be dependent on them for the rest of their lives. Assuming it will be Pakistan, a country that can't support itself, will now be literally controlling policies and politics of Khalistan. Another reason to not to form khalistan.
Third, Punjab is predominantly an agricultural economy and gets most of its waters from rivers. Does anyone have a doubt that, India would make sure that Punjab suffers from drought??
Fourth most of the world won't even accept our existence, since no one in this world would piss off India. Pakistan will be the first country to accept Khalistan as a separate state.
Next,
many Sikhs living in other Indian states would be mass murdered and burnt with tires on their necks.
Next, Sikh people are themselves divided into casts, sects, races. Sikhs will fight among themselves to gain power in the newly formed state. Jats and Khatri Sikhs will slay each other for power anyday.
Next, how are we actually planning to safeguard our country, between 2 nuclear armed powers.
Did Mr. Bhindrawala think about all this before starting the Khalistani movement. That Chutiya just got on stage and blabbered crap about India and Sikhs blindly followed him.
