DSGMC questioned :Yakub Memon is finally hanged but what about the perpetrators of 1984 Sikh’s genocide


Delhi Sikh Gurdwara Management Committee (DSGMC) president S. Manjit Singh GK, in an open letter to the people of India said that 1993 Mumbai terror attack convict Yakub Memon  is finally  hanged but what about the perpetrators of 1984 Sikh’s genocide ? Leave alone putting them behind bars, they have instead  been provided with plush and influential posts , given  high security cover  and are still dictating  terms as if mocking the Sikh’s bloodshed.

“Endless fight, both on roads and in court rooms in past 31 years have brought no reprieve to the ailing Sikh community especially to the victims’ relatives, now it is up to common law abiding citizens of India to decide on the judicial as well as political system that influences the judiciary and raise a voice to change it” said Gk.

He said Mumbai terror attack in 1993 had costs 257 precious lives which was a highly deplorable incident in the history of independent India but butchering of more than ten thousand Sikhs in cold blood in 1984 was no less a heinous crime which deserved justice and taken to a logical end.

“What made the judicial system to reward capital  punishment to the Mumbai terror attack convict  in 22 years times but not to send a single perpetrator of Sikh genocide to gallows even after 31 years of the incident” questioned GK.

He said, in an unprecedented manner, Supreme Court judges worked overnight to expedite the  Yakub Memon’s case  but judicial system never gave a serious thought to punish the killers of thousands of Sikhs who were also expecting justice from the same judicial set up.

Manjinder Singh Sirsa General Secretary Of DSGMC said that Supreme Court had taken suo moto  notice of Godhra incident in which around 1100 people were killed and constituted a Special Investigation Team but in case of Sikh’s genocide, SIT had been constituted but there was no whereabouts of its officials. “Why there is this disparity, why justice is not being given to Sikh victims of 1984 genocide , why the killers of Sikhs are roaming free and away from the clutches of law” questioned Sirsa.

Sikh grandfather risks life for love

Today's crumb comes to us from the Times of India. A 62-year-old man who wishes to remain nameless recently arrived in Australia from India to visit his children and his 18-month-old granddaughter. They were at Wentworthville station in Sydney where he was buying a train ticket. He did not know it, but for weather reasons the platform is slightly slanted toward the tracks, This caused his grandchild's untended buggy to roll away, as shown here, until it crashed down onto the tracks.
Instantly the grandfather ran after the baby. He jumped down onto the track bed and lifted the pram (with his granddaughter in it) up to the waiting arms of her Mom and grandmother. Then he noticed a freight train racing toward him.
He was unable to climb back up on the platform. The train blew its horn to warn him, and a security camera caught him running for his life down the tracks until he found a spot just wide enough to squeeze aside as the train zoomed by. Railroad inspector Paul Reynolds summed up the incident this way: "Baby very lucky. Grandfather just as lucky." The platform will soon be regraded to make it completely flat.

The caution came after a 24-year-old gunman opened fire at two US military centres in Tennessee yesterday, killing four marines in a rampage that officials said was being probed as an act of “domestic terrorism.” The shooter was identified by the FBI as Mohammod Youssuf Abdulazeez.

New Delhi, July 18
India and France share long-standing strategic and diplomatic ties, which the latter now wants to make stronger by going beyond these parameters and moving towards cultural relationship by connecting dots from the past and shared history.
France will in September 2016 commemorate historic ties it has had with Punjab by unveiling a statue of Maharaja Ranjit Singh along with a statue of General Jean-François Allard, who served as the military adviser to the king of Punjab from 1822 till his death in 1839 while defending Punjab on an official assignment.
Allard was among the battery of Frenchmen serving in the army of the Maharaja and rose to become the key military adviser to the king, in the process helping him modernise his army to take on the British.
Gen Allard took major part in the creation and training of the Fauj-i-khas, the “special” or “royal” brigade of the Maharaja. Tropezian Jean-François Allard, an officer in the Napoleon’s army, was exiled in India in 1822, but his military knowledge made him the chief commander of the troops of Maharaja Ranjit Singh.
