PLEASE COPY PASTE THE BELOW LETTER TO chairman@conservatives.com IN REGARD TO ANTI SIKH COMMENTS BY ANITA KAPOOR FEEL FREE TO ADD ANYTHING YOU WANT..
Dear Andrew Feldman & To Whom it may concern,
I write to you on behalf of the European Wide Sikh Community with great disgust & concern at the actions of one of your councillors.Councillor Anita Kapoor called in to the Sikh Youth Show on the Sikh Channel Sky 840 at 9:20pm on Sunday 27th Oct 2013.The shows guests were 'Sikhs For Justice' a Sikh Human Rights Group campaigning for Sikhs to attain justice for the 1984 Sikh Genocide in India - http://www.1984yesitsgenocide.org.
Anita Kapoor phoned in a very rude manner and after presenting herself as Ealing Councillor Anita Kapoor she made accusations against the show such as they are spreading 'hatred' by talking about the 1984 Sikh Genocide & that they are 'sad people'.She was not cut off and was given a full chance to air her views.
The issue of 1984 is a very sensitive one with Anita Kapoor saying the above it has hurt the sentiments of the Sikhs campaigning for justice as well as victims.
On the 1st of November the 29th anniversary of the November Sikh Genocide Sikhs For Justice & thousands of Sikhs from the UK/Canada/America/EU handed in a petition of over 1 Million Signatures to the UN in Geneva asking for 1984 to be recognised as a Genocide.
Next year June 4th is the 30th anniversary of the 1984 Sikh Genocide which started with a military assault on Sikhism's holiest shrine the Golden Temple,this was followed by a mass genocide in November 1984 across India in which over 400,000 Sikhs were hunted like dogs burned alive & raped.
All Sikh Gurdwaras across the World are gearing up for this anniversary next year and are marking the 29th anniversary of the November 1984 Genocide this month.
The irresponsible comments of Councillor Anita Kapoor have hurt the Sikh Community across Europe & the World as Sikh Channel is watched worldwide through the internet and satellite TV,by millions of Sikhs.
On behalf of the Sikh Community we would like an explanation from the Conservative Party in regards to her comments and an apology for her irresponsible comments which have hurt the community and the families of victims who were brutally killed in the Sikh Genocide.She spoke on the show and addressed herself as a 'Councillor' therefore the Sikh Community would like an explanation from the Conservative high command,as the local Ealing unit & Council seem incapable of dealing with this issue.
Anita Kapoor has also sent very rude replies,reinforcing her stand to members of the community who have questioned her actions.She has also claimed to members of the community that Sikhism is not a separate religion rather it's part of Hinduism.
At a time when all Political Parties across the United Kingdom are jostling for the Sikh Vote in various elections Anita Kapoor has done no favours to the Conservative Party by her actions.Sikhs for far too long have been taken for granted as a silent community who 'just get on with it'.This can no longer be the status quo when Political Parties take the community's support for granted & their members insult the community & seem to get away with it.
I hope you will address this issue with urgency
Regards
(YOUR NAME).
