Dal Khalsa ad­mon­ishes the holier than thou role and at­ti­tude of the BJP’s star speaker  Sikh face Man­jin­der Singh Sirsa and snubbed him that there was no dif­fer­ence be­tween Ra­jiv Gandhi and Naren­dra Modi –both killers of mi­nori­ties -both chips of the same block. 

The pre­sent Prime Min­is­ter Naren­dra Gandhi is no less a mob lyncher than the for­mer Prime Min­is­ter Ra­jiv Gandhi  said  Dal Khalsa leader Kan­warpal Singh in re­ac­tion to anti-Ra­jiv Gandhi state­ments by the BJP lead­er­ship in­clud­ing the DS­GMC pres­i­dent Man­jin­der Singh Sirsa.

Join­ing is­sue with Sirsa, the party leader said, “this kind of pol­i­tick­ing is a dan­ger­ous trend.”  The mass killings of No­vem­ber 1984 un­der Ra­jiv Gandhi-led Con­gress and the 2002 killings in Gu­jarat un­der Naren­dra Modi-led Gu­jarat were pogroms against Sikhs and Mus­lims re­spec­tively.

The leader warned Sirsa that, “those who live in glass houses do not throw stones at oth­ers.” Sirsa was dou­bly as­so­ci­ated with Modi –as his party MLA in Delhi and as a part of the na­tional party al­liance at the cen­tre and in the Pun­jab, he added.

“If the Akali Dal wants to re­gain its lost moral au­thor­ity by snub­bing and chal­leng­ing Con­gress on the 1984 geno­cide is­sue, the party will have to jump out of BJP’s band­wagon, as like Con­gress, the hands of saf­fron party lead­ers too were dipped in the blood of in­no­cents”.

Notwith­stand­ing the po­lit­i­cal role of these lead­ers at the In­dian na­tional stage, the Sikh peo­ple see both as mob-lynch­ers who pur­sued their per­sonal and party in­ter­ests at the al­tar of mi­nor­ity rights and did not hes­i­tate in slaugh­ter­ing mi­nori­ties as per their sweet will.

He cau­tioned Man­jin­der Singh Sirsa by say­ing, “If the Akali Dal wants to re­gain its lost moral au­thor­ity by snub­bing and chal­leng­ing Con­gress on the 1984 geno­cide is­sue, the party will have to jump out of BJP’s band­wagon, as like Con­gress, the hands of saf­fron party lead­ers too were dipped in the blood of in­no­cents”.

Two wrongs do not make one right.
