Dr. Rai has said that as a follow-up to the discussion held in London, he contacted the National Security Advisor of India Sri Ajit Doval to inquire�on�the progress on the issue. He announced�that Doval has said that the issue was under process and hopefully 42 political Sikh prisoners would be released within a short period�of time.
He added�that the Indian government has also stepped up the processing to abolish the current ‘black list’ of Sikhs residing abroad. �All the embassies of India across the world have been instructed by Sri Doval to take down the black lists of Sikhs very soon�, he added.
