The problem is one sided research.... and blinldly accepting whatever u hear from ppl as the gospel truth,
sant bhindranwale didn't stand for his personal fame, he stood for the sikh community, and in anyway the anandpur resolution would have been benificial for entire punjab even the punjabi hindu's.
During his days,
when haryana was abt to get the lions share of the waters which flowed in punjab, in answer to sikh protests, and alleged militancy(militancy did exist but not in the way the center propogated the rumors),
sikhs were pulled from busses and shaved clean this went on all day, and policemen watched, 2 gurdwara's in panipat were burnt, 8 sikhs clubbed to death, other than this sikhs in the villages of haryana were drowned in filthy ponds of water... BHAJAN lal the chief minister of haryana sponser the events...
when sant bhindranwale heard of this, he said "each village must have 1 motorbike3 riders, 3 revolvers these weapons will protect you, and also help u to punish those, who do such evils... there is no court to try those who burnt our guru, ..... who so ever bring such ppl to justice, in anywhich way, can come to me for help"
so they say he promoted militancy, why didn't they just hand over to the sikhs/punjab what rightfully belongs to them, there will be no reason for any "militancy"
u know what punjab was b4 47, and how small it is now, water levels r going down, in my village we had water at 40 ft in 84, now its at 150 ft
