India - Terrorists Groups


You are posting same thing again and again. Most of the Khalistan activities were active 25-30 years back and 90% those people are already dead. Today, 99% Sikhs don't know such organisations what you mentioned above. Name always exist once created, But they doesn't exist today in reality. Not a Single activities of such organisations since decade. It's only on paper. Forget about any small terrorism, Most of the Sikhs are in Miltary and Police helping to prevent any terrorism. All Leaders of Sikhs belongs to political parties like BJP, AD, Congress. Indeed, Congress who was blamed by Sikhs are getting maximum Sikhs Votes.

These Sikhs in Canada/UK have mostly migrated pre 1990, when such feelings were prevelant. Gradually, over the last 20 years, Sikhs have integrated into Indian society. Of course the feelings of resentment towards that particular incident will always remain, but that does not mean that Sikhs want a separate nation-state for themselves.

Humanity died in india on the eve of operation blue star...In one night they killed 4000 of their minority brothers along with their dreams for equal rights:agree:

Since you guys don't miss a point scoring opportunity..do tell if Op Bluestar was so wrong ..why did you guys decide to follow in our footsteps and launch the Lal Masjid operation..why din't you learn from our mistakes?

Op bluestar and the subsequent storm it brewed has subsided..while your Lal Masjid ghost still haunts you to this day.
