This thread is about the Sunday 8 June 2014 event and the widespread support that is being galvanised. Sat introduced the 31 December event into the thread rater than start a separate thread. The point is should any Tom, <banned word filter activated> or Harry who totally disrespects the Sikh identity, has no track record and has been silent for 29 years be allowed to lead on organising the historic 30th anniversary June event and totally disregard UK Gurdwaras and Sikh organisations that have been organising and supporting the event since 1984. Everyone agreed there should be one event led by the Federation of Sikh Organisations (FSO) supported by Gurdwaras. The event on 31 December was organised by the rival group who claim to represent the PANTH and are telling the mainstream media this is the case. It is therefore crucial we expose the group when it claims to represent the PANTH, but cannot even muster 50 people in support. On the negative side the rival group is causing confusion, on the positive side it is uniting Gurdwaras and Sikh organisations that believe the rival group is the work of operatives of the Indian authorities.

See post 78 this relates to Akaal Channel. Sikh Channel has also confirmed in writing it will cover the 8 June event. We have been posting one organisation a day and said we do this for 30 days, then one Gurdwara a day for 60 days to show support for 8 June event (see post 34). The organisers of the evnt last night who invited the mainstream media and were looking to reach non-Sikhs should also try and ensure a reasonable turnout so as not to inadvertently damage the 30th anniversary campaign.

Did the campaign 84 group with a turnout of around 50 last night put us to shame or do us proud?

The 30-minute programme last night on the Sikh Channel was heavily edited and quite confusing. Gurdwaras and Sikh organisations appear not to have been consulted and may not be supporting the event by organising transport. The organisers have provided no details despite several requests. The organisers who keep emphasising the Sikh identity is not important (!) are expecting mainstream media coverage, but said they had not yet issued a press release! There was talk of inviting Lords, MPs and interfaith groups on the eve of the event, but it was unclear if contact had been made and any were attending It is debateable if a protest on New Year's Eve in London involving Chaupai Sahib will attract the mainstream media and non-Sikhs. It is also questionable given many of the public that will be out and about will be preparing to celebrate and bring in the New Year. The organisers may also be organising a rival event (in Hyde Park) to the Remembrance March and Freedom Rally on Sunday 8 June 2014 being organised by the Federation of Sikh Organisations (FSO) that has widespread support from Gurdwaras and SIkh organisations.

Some attend the annual event as they simply want to REMEMBER and pay their respects to the Shaheeds. We PROTEST during the MARCH as it is not only about REMEMBRANCE as we have not had JUSTICE. The way we hope to get the message across this year will be more creative, professional etc. If you have not had JUSTICE then what we need to get across to non-Sikhs and the mainstream media on the 30th anniversary is we want FREEDOM (this will be the main theme). FREEDOM can and will have many meanings: FREEDOM for Sikh political prisoners FREEDOM from the death penalty/hanging FREEDOM of religion - Article 25 FREEDOM for greater rights - Punjab's water etc. AND of course FREEDOM from India
