Separatists raise pro-Khalistan slogans under protection of Punjab police

Pro-Khalistan slogans were raised by supporters of radical Sikh outfits as well as that of Shiromani Akali Dal (Amritsar) at the Golden Temple and other places on the 38th anniversary of Operation Bluestar.

Sharing a video of sloganeering on Twitter, former Aam Aadmi Party leader and poet Kumar Vishvas attaked Arvind Kejriwal without taking his name. "All the parties are silent and the one who planned to divide India is vocal," Kumar wrote.

लोग पूछते हैं कि इतना बड़ा देश बँटा कैसे था?ऐसी सुनियोजित साज़िशों और हमारी ये सहने की आदतों के कारण।तब भी मुझ जैसे लोग पागल कहे जाते थे, आज भी जब मैं बोला तो लोगों ने नहीं सुना।देश की सारी पार्टियाँ चुप बैठी हैं और भारतमाँ के आँचल को फाड़ने की योजना बनाने वाला मुखर।आज का पंजाब pic.twitter.com/WuyILDBeLY

Many youths held banners and placards with 'Khalistan Zindabad' written on them. They wore t-shirts with the picture of slain separatist leader Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale printed on them.

Pro-Khalistan slogans were also raised by activists of the Shiromani Akali Dal (Amritsar) outfit led by former MP Simranjit Singh Mann, who was also present at the spot.
