Young and innocent minds fed with "hate" instead of "hope": Vikramjit Singh Sahney

New Delhi [India], June 16 (ANI): International President of World Punjabi Organisation and RS MP Vikramjit Singh Sahney on Monday condemned the alleged act of young Jatt kids kicking posters of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

As International President of World Punjabi Organisation, I strongly condemn this act, it is deeply unfortunate when young, tender and innocent minds are fed with hate instead of hope.

He further wrote in his post that children should be imbued with the moral values emphasised by Guru Sahib.
"As International President of World Punjabi Organisation, I strongly condemn this act. It is deeply unfortunate when young, tender and innocent minds are fed with hate instead of hope. Let us imbibe in our children the moral values emphasised by our Guru sahib and that is ' Jb Tk Duniya Rahiye Nanak Kuch Suniye Kuch Kahiye'. Solution of all the issues is in dialogue," the post read.
He further stated that one should not forget that under the leadership of PM Modi, India was able to take various decisions, including the opening of the Kartarpur Corridor and the Hemkunt Sahib ropeway.
"Let's also not forget Government of India's various decisions under PM Modi's leadership like opening up of Kartarpur Corridor, Hemkunt Sahib Ropeway, Setting up SITs for 1984 anti Sikh genocide Victims, Slashing of blacklisting and visa clearance for Overseas Sikhs who were wrongly barred, granting FCRA registration to Sri Darbar Sahbir enabling global Sangat to do Seva, waiving office GST on Langar items, celebrating 550th Prakash Purab of Guru Nanak Dev Ji and 400th of Guru Teg Bahadur ji at large scale are some positive and constructive gestures towards Sikh sentiments," the post read.
Delhi Minister Manjinder Singh Sirsa, in a post on X also condemned the alleged act and stated that every Sikh was "deeply disturbed" and "ashamed" to see the unlike-Sikh incident against a leader who constantly showed up for the ethos of Sikhism.
In his post, Sirsa wrote that the incident was not the "spirit of Sikhism" but the "influence of individuals with dangerous agendas."
"Every Sikh is deeply disturbed and ashamed to see this unlike-Sikh incident in Canada, where children are inflicting such hatred. And that too against a leader who has consistently shown deep respect for the ethos of Sikhism. What we are witnessing is not the spirit of Sikhism but the influence of some individuals with dangerous agendas. These aren't true representatives of our faith; they appear to be ISI-influenced agents who aren't shying away from radicalising youth or children. They are promoting hate, with a sinister goal of isolating Sikhs globally and tarnishing our reputation. We condemn this behaviour in the strongest possible terms. It is time for all Sikhs, especially those in the diaspora, to stand up against this distortion of our identity and teachings," the post read.
Sirsa further mentioned that Sikhs were ever grateful to PM Modi for all that he had done for the community.
"Sikhs in India are ever grateful to Modi Ji for all that he has done for the community... from the opening of Kartarpur Corridor to celebrating Guru Purabs with such devotion and commemorating the heroic deeds of Sahibzades. He is the one who organised the historic celebration at the Red Fort. He is one who ensured the safe return of Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji from Afghanistan. He is the one who understood the pain of the 1984 genocide and ensured justice for the victim families," the post further read. (ANI)
