Gurpatwant Singh Pannu, the chief of the Khalistani terrorist organization Sikh for Justice (SFJ), has now started a referendum for Khalistan i.e. a separate country in India. This is the first time Pannu has done this. Earlier, he was conducting Khalistan referendum in America, Canada, New Zealand, Australia and Europe, demanding a separate country for Sikhs.
For this, Pannu is taking the help of social media. In which the QR code for voting on the referendum was shared from an account named SFJ Team. Along with this, the process of registering on the website was told. Forms have also been put up by the organization, in which Sikhs and people of other religions can also vote.
However, the account was banned in India only 10 hours after the post came. After this, the QR code and post of the referendum went viral on social media. No date was mentioned for voting.
Age above 18 years is necessary for voting
It was written in the post that Sikhs living in any other state of India other than Punjab should scan the said QR code for their vote or go to www.sikhs4khalistan.net and register. On scanning the QR code, a page opens, in which places for voting from Kashmir to Kanyakumari have been marked.
It was also written that register here for Sikh Independence Referendum vote. To vote, the person should be above 18 years of age. Sikhs were asked to register through the said link by writing their phone number, name and home address.
SFJ prepared 2 types of forms
For conducting referendum in India, 2 types of forms have been prepared by SFJ. In one form, a person of any religion will be able to vote for the referendum, while the second form is for Sikhs living in other states other than Punjab. Sikhs have also been asked to provide information about their relatives. The address of SFJ’s US office is written on every form.
Referendum is being run to create a separate country
SFJ was banned in India in 2019, Pannu declared a terrorist in 2020
The Home Ministry of the Government of India banned SFJ as an illegal organization under UAPA for its activities on 10 July 2019. The Home Ministry had said in its notification that under the guise of referendum for Sikhs, SFJ is supporting separatism and extremist ideology in Punjab.
The central government declared Pannu a terrorist under UAPA on 1 July 2020. In 2020, the government banned more than 40 web pages and YouTube channels associated with SFJ. 15 cases are registered against SFJ and Pannu in India. These include 3 cases of sedition in Punjab.
Pannu is very active on social media. He releases audio and video messages in Punjabi language. In this, he instigates Punjabi youth against India. Not only this, by luring money, he has also installed Khalistani flags in government buildings in Punjab-Haryana.
Indian agent was accused of plotting to kill Pannu
Indian citizen Nikhil Gupta was arrested by the Czech Republic Police on 30 June 2023 on charges of plotting to kill Pannu. After this, Nikhil was extradited to America on 14 June 2024. A case was filed against Nikhil in America, where he declared himself innocent.
According to the American agency FBI, the conspiracy to kill Pannu was hatched during PM Narendra Modi’s visit to America in 2023. A former Indian officer (Vikas Yadav) had asked Nikhil Gupta to plot to kill Pannu.
SFJ has run Khalistan referendum in many countries. All referendum programs are being conducted by Khalistani terrorist and Sikh for Justice chief Gurpatwant Singh Pannu. Its beginning was seen in the year 2022.
However, the referendum could not gather many people in any country. The organization wants to gather Sikhs living in all countries for voting and then prepare a proposal for a separate country and present it in the United Nations (UN) to demand the creation of Khalistan.
Sikh for Justice (SFJ) terrorist Gurpatwant Singh Pannu has said that his life is in danger from India. In an interview to a Canadian news channel, he said that an attempt was made to kill him in the US at the behest of the Indian government. Hardeep Singh Nijjar was murdered for demanding a separate country for Punjabis, despite this he will not stop the referendum for Khalistan.
