- Every Sikh is well aware that during the partition of the country, they had to leave behind their historical Gurdwaras — land blessed by the presence of the Sikh Gurus.

Pakistan is well aware that it has repeatedly faced humiliation because of the Sikhs. Whenever it has waged war against India, it has had to surrender in front of the Sikh soldiers. Due to this, since the 1980s, Pakistan, driven by a sense of revenge against Sikhs, began promoting terrorism across Punjab through border areas adjoining Pakistan. However, when the Hindus and Sikhs of Punjab stood united, Pakistan was defeated here as well.
After failing in that attempt, Pakistan started pushing the youth of Punjab into the swamp of drug addiction. The Pakistani intelligence agency ISI began luring Sikhs abroad with greed and enticement, forcing them into Khalistani activities. However, it is absolutely clear that no Sikh living in India supports Khalistan, nor can they. Every Sikh is well aware that during the partition of the country, they had to leave behind their historical Gurdwaras — land blessed by the presence of the Sikh Gurus. Even today, 78 years later, the Sikh community longs for darshan of those holy places. If Khalistan were to be created, Sikhs fear they might lose access even to the Gurdwaras within India.
Failing in all of this, Pakistan has now started crafting new conspiracies, trying to defame the entire Sikh community. Violating Sikh religious principles, videos are being posted on social media where non-Sikhs are shown wearing turbans and kirpans while intoxicated — which could very well be scenes from Pakistani films. Amanjit Singh Bakhshi, National President of Sikh Brotherhood International, has said that this mistake will not be forgiven under any circumstances and those responsible will definitely be punished.
This also raises another important question: why are the Khalistanis silent on this matter? They claim Sikhs are not respected in India and therefore demand a separate country. But now, when such videos are surfacing, why are they silent? Is it because these acts were committed by Pakistanis — the very ones who support their cause and keep their movements alive?
In Sikhism, no Sikh can wear a kirpan without undergoing the Amrit initiation. And once a Sikh has taken Amrit, they cannot consume intoxicants. Therefore, whoever has done this must understand the gravity of the offense, and the Pakistani government must give the harshest punishment to those responsible, as they are fostering hatred between two nations.
