New Delhi: Congress today said the Centre should keep an "eagle's eye" on recent incidents of violence in Ludhiana, terming them unfortunate and painful.

The issue of violence over a congregation of a religious sect there also found echo in the Lok Sabha with members of Congress and Akali Dal clashing and forcing adjournment of the House for a brief period.

"There is a need for the Centre to keep an eagle's eye on the developments in Punjab given the past history of terrorism. Since 2007 when SAD-BJP government came to power, such incidents have repeatedly happened, which have affected the social cohesion," party spokesperson Manish Tewari told reporters at the AICC briefing here.

Tewari said the Centre has already sent paramilitary forces as requested by the state to control the situation.

"Incidents that took place in Ludhiana in last three days were unfortunate and painful," he said adding that there are information that elements, which had earlier broken the peace of the state are now fanning such things.

Police and Civil Administration Responsible For Ludhiana Incidents

Tribune News Service, Chandigarh, 21 December 2009

A Report prepared by the Team of Professors of Universities arrived from New-Delhi

The following questions are required to be answered in the larger interest:

1. When the migrant labourers had been out of control, then, only the police, not in sufficient strength available on the spot, and the civil administration took the help of locals irrespective of any party, group, or sect etc to control them violently?

2. Was the violence avoidable or did it happen purely due to mismanagement and the law and order problem?

3. Under the circumstances, whether the violence between the locals and the migrants were of different nature than as usually arranged or incited by the politicians for the political reasons in other parts of India like the massacre of Muslims in Gujarat and the Sikhs massacre in 1984 etc in India?

4. Whether the report distinguishes the facts clearly or not?

In absence of the answers to the questions, the report could prove a disastrous for the peace loving and law abiding Indians.

Politics of Injustice like the Politics of Poverty and the Idleness in India

The 1984 Massacre of Sikhs

The Guilty Of Engineering and Abetting the 1984 Massacre of Sikhs Be Prosecuted After the Investigation in the Pending Cases

Was the then entire government machinery not to be held responsible and guilty of engineering and abetting the 1984 massacre of Sikhs, the State- Sponsored Violence against Sikhs and be prosecuted under section 120-B of IPC etc after the investigation in the pending cases?
Or
Are all the criminals responsible for the `genocide of Sikhs` or the `State-Sponsored Violence` against Sikhs not be allowed to take the plea in defence of the then PM (Rajiv Gandhi) who almost rationalized the killing,``?
Or
Was the then PM Rajiv Gandhi not the main accused for the `genocide of Sikhs` or the `State-Sponsored Violence` against Sikhs?
Or
Whether in case, the main accused (Rajiv Gandhi) stands killed by a ‘Human Bomb’, the other co-accused, who remained the part and parcel of the then entire government machinery, responsible for the `genocide of Sikhs` or the `State-Sponsored Violence` against Sikhs, were exempted in the investigation or can not be prosecuted after the investigation in the pending cases, now?

Because, the justice is being denied, intentionally and deliberately, as experienced, then, under the circumstances, every possibility could to be seen as impossibility in India.

A Magisterial Inquiry Ordered-What Could Be The Outcome? It was always remained a problem to know the real root cause of any violence through the ordered inquiries in my country due to lack of political will power for the reasons best known to the rulers concerned.

Will it be possible to know in the magisterial inquiry as to why the so called radical Sikh and or non-Sikh organizations including some of the police officials, the politicians etc in the establishment are out in a planned manner to put Badal government on back foot?
Will it be possible to identify the lawlessness forces working and at whose instance in the District for the alleged snatching of wages to deface and defame the entire district administration?
It would also be difficult to answer on the part of the Punjab government as to why the district administration went out of its way to allow ‘the dera to hold its function at a site which was already placed under curfew and where over a lakh followers were expected to converge even though the situation in the city was tense due to Friday’s clashes’, under the pressure of BJP?

What are the main reasons of Ludhiana bleeding or for the similar cases, the reasons remained in India? Was it a law and order problem or was the politics purely behind all this or is it the only way to rule over the unmanaged population of the country? Would the answer ever be given?

How much more can you divide India, asks Farooq

Subject: New and Renewable Energy Minister Farooq Abdullah pretending himself more patriot falsely
The smaller States are always necessity of any unmanaged country especially like India and there is no need to do politics by the hypocrites, on the issue of creation of further smaller States within India.
The population of India in its bigger states is unmanageable, uncontrollable, unregulated, so, better to have smaller toothless states, to keep India forcibly united and manageable under the unitary form of system constitutionally.
At least, union minister Farooq Abdullah should not oppose the move and the demand of smaller states, to pretend himself more patriot falsely.
The more powerless states never meant for dividing India under the system.
He knew very well that any of the Chief Ministers in India can do nothing of his own and has to work under “some powers” when he has already confessed the reality and created flutter by claiming that “some powers” had prevented him from probing the massacre of 35 Sikhs at Chattisinghpora in 2000 on the eve of Bill Clinton’s visit to India.

Darshan’s son made a cop, Panthics plead family to return govt ‘aid’

Subject: Were they all not in field, to divide Sikhs for the political reasons, with the support of the agencies?

Who are not with the government?
They may say or claim that they are with the centre or state, politically one and the same thing?
Were they all, former Jathedar of the Akal Takht, Bhai Ranjit Singh, president of SAD( Amritsar), Simranjeet Singh Mann, president of Delhi Sikh Gurdawara Management committee, Paramjit Singh Sarna, Damdami Taksal head, Baba Harnam Singh Dhuma, Baba Ranjit Singh Dhadrianwala, Satnam Singh Paonta Sahib of Dal Khalsa and Baba Sarabjot Singh Bedi of Sant Samaj etc, not in field, to divide Sikhs for the political reasons, with the support of the agencies and always politically and financially benefited directly or indirectly so?
Gurpreet Singh son of Darshan Singh rightly accepted the government job in police, and thereby, gave a strong message to the opportunists that such death would never be cashed by anyone mischievously.
And, now, in return, in the present situation, the leaders of the various organizations may withdraw their announced financial assistance.

Sikh bodies call for boycott of CM Badal-Will it be possible in inquiry to know the real root cause of any violence and identify the culprits in India? And, as to why the named radicals and or non-Sikh organizations and anti-social elements including the police officials and politicians are out in a planned manner only to let down Badal (politics) and the robbers snatching of wages to deface and defame the entire district administration? What for, the administration went out of its way to allow ‘the dera to hold its function at a site which was already placed under curfew and where over a lakh followers were expected to converge even though the situation in the city was tense due to Friday’s clashes’, under the pressure of BJP, having strong cells in the centre? Would answer be in view of the statement of Union minister Farooq Abdullah, who created a flutter by claiming that “some powers”(central agencies) had prevented him from probing the massacre of 35 Sikhs at Chattisinghpora in 2000 on the eve of Bill Clinton’s visit to India”.

Can Ashutosh Maharaj Or The Sikhs Or Any Other Agency To Remove The Misunderstanding?

What were the truth and the conspiracy?

Both reported versions were contradictory as under.

Can Ashutosh Maharaj or the Sikhs to remove the misunderstanding or any other agency?

The truth must be brought on surface to amend the party at fault and guilty.

Has Ashutosh Maharaj posing himself to be a reincarnation of Guru Nanak or only the Sikhs claim, then, it can be gossip?

If Ashutosh Maharaj himself was openly confirming it and claiming so, then, it should to be taken seriously that as to why the migrant, intentionally and deliberately, was suggesting irritatingly to Sikhs to adopt him as their first Guru, Guru Nanak?”

VERSUS

Baba Harnam Singh Dhumma added the bone of contention among them was that he used to say in his discourses that the Sikhs were not the real Khalsa.

We have a video footage to prove the allegations against him.

According to Baba Harnam Singh Dhumma, chief of Damdami Taksal, the Sikh organisation, his (Ashutosh) followers popularise him as a reincarnation of Guru Nanak Dev, Lord Rama and Jesus Christ as reported. By Balbir Singh Sooch, Advocate, Ludhiana
