Published in 2008, this is a scathing attack on KPS Gill for his clean chit to Narendra Modi’s involvement in the 2002 anti-Muslim carnage in Gujarat.

AMRITSAR: In a strong reaction to the reported clean chit by former DGP Punjab KPS Gill to Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi on his involvement in the anti-Muslim carnage of 2002, Dal Khalsa denounced the sympathetic tone of KPS Gill as the “devil quoting scriptures”.

“It is clearly a case of one perpetrator patting another’s back as the hands of both Modi and Gill are soaked in the blood of innocents.” said Kanwarpal Singh in a hard-hitting statement released to media here today. Gill, who himself is in the dock for carrying out extra-constitutional and illegal operations in the name of fighting militancy in Punjab, has no moral right to make such sweeping statements.”

“KPS Gill is not the ‘paramount police which his biographer, the Indian media and the Indian establishment want to portray and want the people to believe, instead he is a “Frankenstein monster” who is yet to be arraigned before law for his direct and indirect complicity in the pre-meditated involuntary murders of innocent Sikh youth who struggled for protecting and upholding the distinct identity of the Sikhs in the eighties of the last century””

Like the Jews who continue to hunt for Nazi killers and perpetrators of crimes against humanity, we too will continue to haunt KPS Gill, till we see him behind bars. Indian civil society will do well to rise above Love for Gill.  

Taking a very strong exception to the reported statement of Jagbani editor Vijay Kumar Chopra’s comparison of KPS Gill with Sikh warrior Hari Singh Nalwa, Kanwarpal Singh said, “This is disgusting, historically wrong and is like rubbing salt on our wounds. Shri Chopra must apologize to the Sikhs for his bizarre comparison.”

Striking a retaliatory note, Kanwarpal Singh said, “I am surprised and shocked that Shri Chopra has forgotten lessons of contemporary history and has chosen to play with our emotions as was done by his father in the early eighties.”
