I saw a very similar program a few days ago. Pakistan is going through some testing times. Pakistan has still done well to warn people, alot other countries would have ignored the minorities!

This is really sad stuff - I wonder whether there is extra aid/ extra donations going to this Gurdwara to support the numbers displaced. Does anyone know or how we can help? Thanks.

Not sure, do we have a sikh related aid charity ?

I am not sure whether the govt is helping or the gurdwara is bearing the expenditure. Most of the IDPs have been accommodated by local community but the Sikhs can neither go to a camp nor stay with locals because of their specific religious needs.

The old woman in the video is saying (in Pashto) we are tired and want to go back as earlier as possible. Obviously, stay of so many people in a confined place like gurdwara is unconfortable.

Not only Sikhs,Hindus and majority but lakhs of Muslims have also migrated.

In short everyone from Swat ha migrated.

One report says Sikhs say they migrated fearing the Pak army !

Only those who have migrated can tell the truth.
