NEW DELHI (February 12, 2015)—Bhai Baldeep Singh, a renowned Gurmat sangeet musician, as well as the Aam Aadmi Party member from Khadoor Sahib visited Vikram Singh Dhanaula yesterday. While the entire city of New Delhi, and the entire country was celebrating the victory of AAP, Bhai Baldeep Singh had received a message about Vikram Singh’s deteriorating health. In a message shared on his Facebook account, Bhai Baldeep Singh stated that he will not celebrate until the 1984 Sikh genocide culprits are brought to justice.

Bhai Baldeep Singh is one of the first politicians from any political affiliation to have paid Vikram Singh a visit. He called onto others to join the campaign started by Vikram Singh at Jantar Mantar. He mentioned the need to establish a SIT to investigate cases related to the 1984 genocide of the Sikhs.

He had also established a special court for these cases, however he was soon forced to resign and Central Government did not take forward Kejriwal’s initiatives.

Following is the complete message posted by Bhai Baldeep Singh -

Vikram Singh Dhanaula on indefinite hunger-strike:

I was just about beginning to celebrate Aam Aadmi Party’s historic victory in the 2015 Delhi Assembly elections when I got a message that the health of Vikram Singh Dhanaula has deteriorated. His hunger strike, to seek justice for the victims of 1984 genocide against the Sikhs, has now entered third month.

I spoke to a few fellow Gur-Sikh volunteers and we visited him last night. We discussed the matter and I assured him that until the Sikh community has not had had the guilty punished, we have no reason to celebrate. I told him that I am with him and that I will do all that I can within my finite and feeble might (so he can end his fast). I have told him that Punjab needs his kind of dedicated soldiers so it (Punjab) is able to stand back up on its feet, regain its lost glory and place as a responsible contributor of ideas, even inspiration and resilience to the country and beyond.

The question isn’t just about a Jagdish Tytler or a Sajjan Kumar or a Kamal Nath or the late H K L Bhagat but about hundreds of others who got so injected with anti-Sikh venom that they unleashed such a rampage, such killing, maiming, raping, looting, insulting the survivors with eternal scars as if. Who were these people? Where did they come from? Were they from the slums in and around the respective colonies the victims resided in and which were patronised by Congress and BJP? There were reports about people being brought from neighbouring regions including which are now called the National Capital Region. I was once threatened by an autorickshaw driver (1994) with all that he did in 1984 to me! So I know that locals were involved.

I want the SIT to even tell us, the Gur-Sikhs, how to reconcile with this gross insult and taunt inflicted with such an inhuman intent, months after the unforgettable criminal attack on the Akal Takht and Darbar Sahib.

Additionally, I demand a separate SIT to probe into all that led to the unforgettable and unforgivable attack called Operation Blue-Star; the failings of the central and state governments; the role of Sant Jarnail Singh Bhindrawale and his aides, if any; by the Akali Dal and Congress politicians as is publicly alleged; the goof-ups by the state and national intelligence agencies; the misuse of paramilitary and police forces – their atrocities; justice that was delayed, that which was denied; the conspiracies —conspirators, manipulations —manipulators; and so on.

Vikram Singh Dhanaula’s demands are just; to have Sikh presence in the SIT that is to probe the anti-Sikh genocide; and two, to fast-track the whole process. I am requesting people to rally behind this lonesome crusader. Let us not let him suffer this indifference – such humiliation by the state all alone and all by himself.

Let us join him!

I will be with him at 4:00 PM sharp today!

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
