wjkk wjkf

Bristol and Bedford lot also came

as for the hindu protest hmmm where were they all? celebrating thier independance i guess

Gravesend, Luton and Southampton also need a mention as they were also represented.

I also forgot to mention the 11-year old 'representative' from Toronto - this is his 2nd year in a rowat the London, UK protest!. He puts some Sikhs in the UK to shame! Some more photographs:

There need to be more women at all these kind of protests. If I was the average non-sikh british dude and looked at the protestors I would think only men were interested in seeing a free Khalistan. Why isnt their a female wing of Sikh political organisations in UK? Maybe one should be setup.

BTW is the prime minister of Khalistan there in the pics too?

it is very hard when 20 sikhs show up with signs saying "India out of khalistan", and thousands of sikhs are on network TV saying, "khalistanis out of india".

[killah]

hmmm I think these protests are pointless if we keep having the usual lot turn up. I mean look at them at the front of the barrier, how many of them actually can speak fluent english and able to express to the media and passers by what their cause is and why they protesting. It looks like a joke, the hindus had brains they didnt turn up lol.

Compare these protests with those of Free Tibet, we can learn alot!

[killah]

This is more like it!

Found this picture taken from junes 2006 hyde park protest

killah were you actually there to say that the protests are pointless? because i was there..and i dont think it was...ok fair enough we didnt actually get to go inside and talk to the people at the high commision but we informed the public aswell as protesting. and this year was slightly different. if we actually had the youth turning up it would be just the same old faces at the front. if people arent willing to attend these protest of course its going to be those same people that have been going for the past 22years. like i said in one of my earlier posts...y is we can wear all these sant ji tops to nagar kirtans but when the time for a protest not one of those people can actually turn up?

killah paji i do agree on ur point about there needing to be more singhnia at events like these!

[singh_sandhu]

I rekon it went well :TH: but yh more Bibyaan need 2 take part aswell

How could some of them make time inbetween seeing the baba's and sants they go too...

Good stuff.

it is very hard when 20 sikhs show up with signs saying "India out of khalistan", and thousands of sikhs are on network TV saying, "khalistanis out of india".

The difference is how much do the 'Sikhs' on network TV get paid to say it! :e:

Pakhandi are you saying that there was a low turn out because people were visiting a sant?

You know that sounds pathetic.

Sadly there is not a single female in the pictures.

But thank you Jagtar Singh Khalsa for putting up the pictures. Those that turned up would have raised awareness. Therefore it was not pointless at all.
