A bomb blast at the Red Fort just before the 350th martyrdom anniversary events of Guru Tegh Bahadur Ji — it is possible this was part of a conspiracy to stop those programmes.
Everyone appears to be expressing grief over the bomb explosion near Delhi’s Red Fort, but the kind of statements being made by Khalistanis sitting abroad are highly reprehensible. It shows that their humanity is gone; they can stoop to any depth to serve their own interests.
Representatives of Khalistani organisations are trying to link this incident to the 1984 anti-Sikh massacres, but perhaps they do not know their history: that massacre was instigated by a political party, whereas the bomb blast was carried out by terrorists. It would be better if they did not try to mislead the Sikh community with such assertions.
In a few days, a special programme dedicated to the 350th martyrdom anniversary of Guru Tegh Bahadur Ji is to be held at the same Red Fort grounds, and preparations are in full swing. The country’s Prime Minister, Home Minister, several state Chief Ministers, religious leaders of all faiths, and hundreds of thousands of devotees from India and abroad are expected to attend. Therefore, it is possible that terrorists carried out these explosions to sabotage the events; Red Fort was chosen so that, citing security concerns, the programmes could be called off.
The Guru Maharaj Ji festivities are being organized by Sikh jathas together with the central and Delhi governments — which perhaps terrorist organisations cannot tolerate — because these groups have always tried to prevent Hindu-Sikh unity.
The country’s security agencies should identify everyone involved in such activities and take strict action. And if Pakistan’s hand is found in this, the Government of India should launch measures even greater than Operation Sindoor.
