The Dal Khalsa asks Punjab government to explain
to the people about the contribution of
deceased Sarbjit Singh towards the state and the rationale behind cremating his mortal remains with full state
honour and also that of announcing Rs 1 crore from public exchequer for his
family.
Contrary to popular belief Sarbjit was not a Sikh and his family have openly said they are Hindus.Sarbjit was an intelligence agent of the Hindutva RAW Research & Analysis Wing intelligence agency of Hindutva India.

Taking a dig at Badals for announcing Sarbjit as
a national
martyr and three day state mourning, party head H S Dhami and general
secretary
Dr Manjinder Singh said as claimed by the Indian state, Sarbjit was not
sent to Pakistan on official duty, then how come he be created with
state honour and how can state announce 3 day mourning.
They made it clear that the killing was highly
unfortunate in Pakistani prison and they
were saddened by this ghastly act and they also share organization’s condolences
with his family members. However, they said they were convinced that he was
not as innocent as had been portrayed by the state and the mainstream media.
These leaders said Sarbjit was tried and convicted by the
judicial process of Pakistan for carrying out subversive activities over there.
By going extra miles to give him hero’s send-off and showering financial doles
on him at his unfortunate demise, the Indian state had proven that he was state
sponsored actor sent to Pakistan to
accomplish the task assigned by his handlers.
They pointed out on one hand, Chief Minister
Parkash Singh Badal and Sukhbir Singh Badal have lost no time in
declaring Sarbjit a
national martyr without explaining the nature of his sacrifice in the
assembly
session convened for some other pressing reason. On the other hand, the
father-son duo look irritated and uncomfortable with Gurdwara built in
memory of June 1984 martyrs being named after Sant Jarnail Singh
Bhindranwale
who had been accorded the status of a martyr by the Akal Takht and the
SGPC on
June 6, 2003. They asked Badals to come clear whether as SAD leaders,
they abide by the Akal Takht decisions or not?
They asked Badals to name any uniformed soldier who died on duty while serving the state or country, who
had been given one crore rupees from the state exchequer.
Taking a jibe at Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh for calling
him a “brave son of India”, the leaders asked him to tell the countrymen about
the bravery exemplified by Sarbjit for the sake of the country.
They wondered whether PM and other leaders including Badals
considered Sarbjit action of crossing the international border in an inebriated
condition (as claimed by his family members) as an “act of bravery”. They
ridicule the theory of mistaken identity forwarded by Sarbjit’s family members
and termed it after-thought to save his skin.
