Sikhs Should Not Celebrate Bandhi Chorh Divas or 'Diwali' This Year - Never Forget 1984



Dal Khalsa UK urges all Sikhs to refrain from any 'Celebrations' this year of Bandhi Chorh Divas or Diwali as most Sikhs call it.The Gurpurab this year falls on the same weekend as the 29th anniversary of the November 1984 Sikh Genocide across India,in which Hindu mobs under instruction from the Hindutva establishment killed & ethnically cleansed ten's of thousands of Sikhs.

While we encourage all Sikhs to remember Dhan Sri Guru Hargobind Sahib Ji's release from Jail & the concept behind Bandhi Chorh Divas,we ask all to refrain from any letting off fireworks & celebratory cheer,such as handing out ladoos etc.

Leading on from the letter of Jathedar Bhai Balwant Singh Ji Rajoana who appealed to the Khalsa Panth - the Sikh Nation & the SGPC to refrain from letting off fireworks,we would like to also reinforce his message.Jathedar Bhai Balwant Singh Ji Rajoana has instead appealed to all Sikhs to save the money they would have used for fireworks to help the families of the Shaheeds.While we acknowledge that not all Sikhs families across the world can help out financially,we ask them instead to reflect on the past 29 years on this sombre Bandhi Chorh Divas,and educate one another.

On the day of Bandhi Chorh Divas take ALL your family to the Gurdwara & educate them on what the Gurpurab is about and about what happened 29 years ago to our people across India.Keep your conscience alive, if you have saved up money for fireworks,sweets etc use that money instead to play your part in the Sikh Freedom Movement in whatever way you wish from printing leaflets,creating media regarding 1984 all the way to helping the families of Shaheeds in whichever way you or your family see fit.

While many Parents and elders may not agree with the above and call us and the Gurdwaras not celebrating 'extremists' we believe the Sikh Youth of today will heed this Panthic call.This Bandhi Chorh Divas lets make a change,for once lets not let off fireworks for once lets not 'celebrate' something just for the sake of it in a commercial manner.For far too long Bandhi Chorh Divas has become a reason for a party in many Sikh homes across the World.Lets vow this Bandhi Chorh Divas - the 29th anniversary of the 1984 Sikh Genocide across India that we will keep OUR CONSCIENCE ALIVE regardless of what anyone tells us.

On this occasion of Bandhi Chorh Divas 29 years ago Sikh Girls were raped across India,Sikhs were lynched & burned alive,fed to dogs,Dhan Dhan Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji's saroops were burned ripped apart & thrown on to the streets.This could have been your father,mother or sister or even YOU!
The soil was drenched in the blood of Sikhs across India 29 years later the culprits are still roaming free with Hindutva Indian state protection.

With this in mind can we really celebrate or attend so called 'Diwali' parties,which most Sikh families do?

Any celebration this year will be an insult to the Shaheeds of 1984 & to the Sikh Kaum as a whole,just as in 1984 when Bandhi Chorh Divas also fell at the same time,Sikhs across the UK did not have any celebrations but instead put all efforts in to raising more awareness of what was happening the Sikhs in Hindutva India.

We ask all to please copy this message & paste it to their social media pages,profiles such as Facebook,Twitter Google+ and even text friends & families the basic message of what many Gursikhs such as Jathedar Bhai Balwant Singh Ji Rajoana are trying to tell us this Bandhi Chorh Divas.

We cannot celebrate our own Genocide!
