Commission of Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir.
He said that while one member from Sikh
Community has always been nominated in the J& K Public
Service Commission in the past many years as part of the practice to
provide due representation to the Sikh community but now the in recent
notification issued by L G of J& K Union Territory vide dated
24-06-2020, the representation of Sikh Community has been completely ignored
which has created widespread anger and resentment among the community masses.
He told Home Minister Amit Shah that Sikhs
has always been discriminated in the Union Territory of J& K in the matter
of employment, granting of minority status, grant of reservations and all other
avenues needed for the advancement and upliftment of the Sikh masses.
He said that while all other minority communities
were forced to migrate from J&K and sought refuge at safer places fearing
threat to their lives but Sikh community never migrated from Kashmir
valley and fought the enemies of the country valiantly with courage and determinations.
He said though Sikhs has suffered heavily in the hands of the anti-national
terrorists elements in the valley while fighting Pakistan sponsored
anti national forces but Sikh Community has always taken tough stand against
disintegration forces and have borne massive loss of life and property for the
unity and integrity of the country.
He requested the Union Home Minister Amit
Shah to intervene in this case and ensure proper representation of Sikh
Community in Public Service Commission and all other constitutional, statutory
bodies of Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir.
Mr. Manjinder Singh Sirsa told Home Minister
that after the formation of Union Territory, Sikh Community has great hopes and
aspirations from central Government and added that Sikhs are demanding acceptance
of their long-pending demands which will lead to overall development and growth
of minority community and pave way for strengthening of emotional bonds of Sikh
Community living in Kashmir valley with their brethren in other parts of
the country.
