New Delhi (KP) -  Sikh Journalist Jarnail Singh, who received worldwide attention for flinging a shoe at India’s Union Home Minister P. Chidambaram, was recently manhandled by riffraffs connected to Congress leader Sajjan Kumar outside the Delhi’s Karkardooma courts complex. 

Long-time Sajjan Kumar acquaintance, Atma Lubana, along with a number of his associates physically assaulted the Sikh journalist and threatened him with dire consequences because Jarnail Singh had exposed their dubious activities in his recent memoirs.  

In an exclusive interview with Panthic, Journalist Jarnail Singh explained that he was at the court-house to provide moral support and assistance to Bibi Nirpreet Kaur and other key 1984 witnesses who were present at Sajjan Kumar’s anticipatory bail hearing.

The  Karkardooma court had earlier granted the November 1984 anti-Sikh pogroms inciter Sajjan Kumar anticipatory bail in connection to the cases pending against him.

Jarnail Singh stated that Atma Lubana and his supporters were also responsible for intimidating and harassing many key November 1984 pogroms witnesses, including Satnami Bai,  Darshan Kaur, and Anwar Kaur.  He has detailed these allegations in his recently published book “I Accuse...The Anti-Sikh Violence of 1984..”

Atma Lubana was also summoned to Sri Akal Takht Sahib and reprimanded for his unscrupulous role in intimidating the November 1984 witnesses and victims.

Jarnail Singh described Atma Lubana as a “Panth dokhi” and “Panth gaddaar” who has continuously harassed, intimidated, and bribed poor and helpless witnesses against HKL Bhagat, Sajjan Kumar, and Jagdish Tytler. 

Commenting on the Delhi Sikh Gurdwara Management Committee and supremo, Paramjit Sarna's assistance in regards to the 1984 cases, he noted:

“Those people are scared to even talk about 1984. For 25 years, they have never held a single Akhand Patth in commemoration of 1984, and have not even allowed an Ardas to be done for the 1984 victims”.

"ਜਦੋਂ ਸਿਖਾਂ ਦਾ ਪਿਛਲੇ ੨੫ ਸਾਲਾਂ ਦੇ ਅੰਦਰ ਸਭ ਤੋਂ ਵੱਡੇ ਈਸ਼ੂ ਤੇ ਇਨ੍ਹਾਂ (ਸਰਨਾ - ਦਿੱਲੀ ਕਮੇਟੀ) ਦੀ ਬੋਲਤੀ ਬੰਦ ਹੈ, ਇਹ ਕਾਹਦਾ ਵਿਸ਼ਵ ਸਿੱਖ ਸੰਮੇਲਨ ਕਰਨਗੇ?"

- ਪੱਤ੍ਰਕਾਰ ਜਰਨੈਲ ਸਿੰਘ

He pointed out that Sarna and the Delhi committee have never even made a single statement in regards to the November 1984 cases and the 25 years of injustices that have followed, nor have they provided any assistance or protection to the ’84 witnesses.

Regarding the upcoming DSGMC centered “World Sikh Convention”, Jarnail Singh stated : “They (DSGMC) have been completely  silent on the biggest issue for the last 25 years (1984 Sikh Genocide), what can they really accomplish at the World Sikh Samelan?
