DSGMC President Hit at Kejriwal :Ask Him Not to Rake Genocide Victims Issue for Political Benefit

New Delhi / 22-1-2016 Manjit Singh G.K. President of the Delhi Sikh Gurdwara Management Committee (DSGMC) hitting on the Aam Admi Party (AAP) convener and Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal today said that his intentions towards the victims of 1984 Sikh genocide were not good, because even one year after setting up of Special Investigation Team (SIT) to re investigate the case of genocide the matter was embroiled in missing and relocating the related file. G.K. said this while addressing a press conference today.
He demanded a thorough probe into the whole episode by CBI as to how an important file went missing and after few days the Delhi government is claiming that they have found it. “There is something really suspicious about the functioning of state government which need to be probed”, G.K. demanded. Kejriwal need to explain to the people what is holding the Delhi government against starting investigations into the genocide, asked G.K. who is also president of Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) in Delhi.  

   “The matter is very close to the heart of Sikhs who have gone through tremendous pain during the genocide and 31 years after that in the wait for justice, so I want to tell Kejriwal not to do politics on the issue”, G.K. said, asking Delhi CM to explain what has he done for the sake of victims and families of genocide on 1984.


    “SIT was formed when Kejriwal was running his government with the support from Congress party and we had at that time said that intentions of AAP led government in Delhi were not clear, which has proved true now”, said G.K. AAP and Congress are two sides of a coin, and none of the two parties want actually want to do anything for the sake genocide victim families, he also said.

20 PUNJABI YOUTH FEARED DROWNED IN US BOAT TRAGEDY

About 20 youths from Punjab headed to the US illegally are feared drowned in a boat-capsize incident at sea between the Colombian port city of Turbo and neighbouring South American country Panama in the first week of this month, as reported by a survivor.
Two families from Kapurthala district claim to have received the tragic news over telephone from the survivor, Sonu of Bhogpur (Jalandhar). They have approached the Kapurthala police with a complaint against travel agents Harbhajan Singh of Kapurthala’s Bhatnura village and Kulwinder Singh Multani of Bhogpur, and sought help from the Indian government in tracing their sons.
Kapurthala senior superintendent of police (SSP) Rajinder Singh said a case under Sections 420 (cheating) and 406 (punishment for criminal breach of trust) of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) and various sections of the Immigration Act had been registered against Harbhajan and Multani and they would now be arrested and interrogated to know how many youths were on the boat.
Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Sukhpal Singh Khaira has requested Prime Minister Narendra Modi and external affairs minister Sushma Swaraj to intervene in the matter to bring justice to the victims and expose the human-trafficking racket.
