AMRITSAR SAHIB, Punjab—Bhai Bagicha Singh Waraich and Bhai Gurpreet Singh Guri Hans, key co-ordinators of Bhai Gurbaskh Singh Khalsa’s ‘Bandi Singh Rehai Morcha’, have cleared the false rumours being propagated on social media over the last 24 hours that Baba Ranjit Singh Khalsa Dhadrianwale denied space for the Singh’s to continue the hunger strike from Gurdwara Parmeshar Dwar Sahib in Patiala. Gursikhs involved in the campaign who visited Parmeshar Dwar yesterday 14 January 2015 have categorically dismissed any such rumours as totally false information and have commended Baba Ranjit Singh Khalsa for being one of the very few in Punjab who have openly supported this campaign from the very first day to free those Sikh prisoners who have already served their legal sentences.
Unbiased Sikhs who truly feel pain for the Khalsa Panth must always form an opinion by assessing each individual and each organisation after careful and close examination based on the individuals and organisations actions based on fact, as opposed to hearsay. Those who walk on the path of truth are often not favourable in the eyes of those who they speak against. For that reason, false information is disseminated into the community to create confusion and break trust. Sikhs must beware of such information before taking steps to propagate biased and/or unconfirmed information that can damage the strategy of the nation internally. Sikhs must not play into the hands of those anti-Panthik forces who continuously strive to weaken the build-up of any strategic unity that certain Panthik Parcharaks are tirelessly working day and night to create.
The situation is not always as it seems and many things are not always disclosed publicly. The Sikh youth in particular must begin to differentiate those who are indeed “walking the walk” with a proven track record, and those who are hiding behind post-event statements..
