WAHIGURU JI KA KHALSA
WAHIGURU JI KI FATEH
I am referring S. Karamjit Singh S/O S. Sohan Singh permanent resident of Vill & P.O.: Chhatri, Tehsil: Thunag, Distt: Mandi (H.P.).
Karamjit Singh is an Amritdhari Sikh. On 06th April 2008 he was beaten up by some Brahmins of Chhatri Village, his hair were cut, his mini sword (Kirpan) which he was wearing was thrown into the toilet pipe, his turban and hair were burnt, his wife was insulted. FIR No 82/08 dated 19 Apr 08 under Section 147,325, 295 IPC to this effect was lodged in Police Station Gohar. But no arrest has been made so far.
S. Parkash Singh Badal, Chief Minister of Punjab says that he has formed the alliance with BJP to protect the Sikhs. But it is unfortunate; sacrilege has taken place, when you are the Chief Minister. Sikhs in India and all over the world are very perturbed over this incident in Himachal Pardesh, where everybody knows the tenants of the Sikh faith.
The police and local population is putting pressure to withdraw the case. This is totally unbecoming of the police force, which is ment to be a fair, impartial, and constitutional (secularism) in the hallmark of Indian Constitution. S. Karamjit Singh along with his family wants to flee Himachal Pardesh. But I have assured him that his religion and security would be ensured and protected by the Chief Minister.
I will be highly grateful, if you could personally look into the case and provide justice to S. Karamjit Singh.
Sardar Kulwant Singh and Sardar Harchand Singh from our party will meet you.
With regards,
Yours Sincerely,
Simranjit Singh Mann,
President,

Hon'ble Chief Ministerr
