[cool water]

well done everyone who came down today in London, an impressive turn out possibly bigger than last years 30,000.

Finally after years of trying to get on the news this peaceful protest that Sikhs have done for the last 30years non stop has made it on headline bbc news so congratulations to them for highlighting this and all those who took part.

read it, these kind of quotes, are they doing any good:

BBC: "Although the Golden Temple in Punjab had been occupied by heavily-armed extremists in June 1984, even moderate Sikhs were horrified by the violence of the Indian army's attack."

and that joker tully was on nihals show on friday, even though he has been proved to be a liar on this subject.

I listened to quite a bit of Nihal's the show on Friday. Mark Tully was a bit taken aback by the fact that his usual claims and lies were challenged for the first time after so many years! Have yet to finish listening to the show.

The protests yesterday were an amazing sight! Of what I saw of the presentation in trafalgar square, it was great!!- straight to the point, limited punjabi (as its aimed at awareness rather than parchar) and the themes of truth, justice and freedom worked really well in getting the message across.

I think a lot of sewadaars reaching out to people in side streets to explain what we were protesting about - another great step in the right direction!

Well done everyone!

Tully is a biased chamcha and serves the interests of GOI, would not surprise me an iota that his knighthood was achieved through GOI leverage! One can find YT videos of his lies when he claimed his foot touched Sant Ji's teer, then he changes his account later on. I'm sure I read somewhere he converted to Hinduism, whether he still is or not I cannot say.
