LONDON, Dec 5 (Alliance News): The secessionist group Sikhs For Justice (SFJ) has launched a “Kill Modi Politics” campaign in the United Kingdom, following recent rallies at Hindu temples in Canada aimed at disrupting Life Certificate Camps organized by Indian diplomats.
The campaign has prominently featured “Wanted” banners of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and External Affairs Minister (EAM) Subrahmanyam Jaishankar at the Guru Nanak Gurdwara in West Bromwich.
SFJ General Counsel Gurpatwant Singh Pannun declared that any event outside the Indian High Commission involving Indian diplomats, including those at Hindu temples, would be met with Khalistan rallies.
“This is to highlight the ongoing threat to the life and liberty of UK-based pro-Khalistan Sikhs,” Pannun said.
He accused Modi’s regime of using Hindu temples around the world as hubs for spreading “violent Hindutva ideology” and recruiting operatives to monitor and attack pro-Khalistan Sikhs.
Dupinderjit Singh, SFJ coordinator in the UK, claimed that while Indian agents targeted Paramjeet Singh Pamma, a close ally of Hardeep Singh Nijjar and UK Coordinator for the Khalistan Referendum, Indian diplomats were recruiting pro-Hindutva supporters in London for intelligence operations against pro-Khalistan Sikhs.
Tensions have already flared in Canada, where clashes occurred outside Hindu and Sikh temples in early November. Videos showed confrontations involving bricks, flagpoles, and strikes, with participants waving both the Indian tricolour and the yellow flag of pro-Khalistan activists.
These protests were triggered by Indian government officials’ visits to temples for consular sessions, which were linked to the Indian intelligence apparatus.
The visits took place just days after accusations from Canadian authorities and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s administration, who claimed that Modi’s government orchestrated campaigns of violence and intimidation against Sikh activists in exile.
Inderjeet Singh Gosal, a SFJ leader, stressed that the protest was directed at the Indian government, not the Hindu religion, and noted that the group had coordinated with police to ensure the demonstration would not disrupt worship services.
