INDIAN MINORITIES OF THE DIASPORA

Indian Minorities of the diaspora coming together to combat fascism

 Bibi Paramjit Kaur Khalra widow of Jaswant Singh Kalra, the human rights activist who was abducted by Indian police and eliminated after he documented the secret cremations of thousands of missing innocent Sikh youth at the hands of the Indian State, condemned the killing in the harshest words, “We hold both the culprit and the progenitors of the caste cancer responsible for such miseries upon the hapless people of India!” 

Recently the evils of caste were reluctantly addressed by the tech giant Apple and Cisco. These companies have updated their general employee conduct policy to include caste-based discrimination as prohibited alongside previous categories like race, religion, gender, etc. The changes came after Cisco was sued in June 2020 by a low-caste engineer who accused two upper- caste bosses of discriminating against him in the workplace. 

“Our answer lies in capturing the power in India to be truly free” said Mr. Balbir Dhillon, President of West Sacramento Gurdwara, who was tortured in 1996 by Delhi police for three months while traveling to Punjab as a U.S. citizen. He was held without charges and was freed after over 50 congresspersons intervened for his release. Dhillon stressed that “The Biden administration must implement a strategic policy to prevent a theocratic Hindu State.” 

Earlier US congressman Ro Khanna, a secular Hindu, championed the American values and bravely rejected Hindutva declaring that “It’s the duty of every American politician of Hindu faith to stand for pluralism, reject Hindutva, and speak for equal rights for Hindus, Muslims, Sikhs, Buddhist & Christians.”Americans must rise and speak out against the evils of caste and fascism!
