Ottawa, November 06, 2022 (PPI-OT):The second phase of voting in connection with the Khalistan Referendum in Ontario district of Canada will be held, today, (Sunday). Sikh representative organization, Sikhs for Justice (SFJ) is spearheading the Khalistan Referendum campaign aimed at garnering support at the international level for separation of Punjab from India and declaring it a separate homeland for Sikhs. Since the launch of the voting on October 31, last year, from London, despite India’s protests, the governments in Canada, UK, Switzerland and Italy have allowed the Khalistan Referendum to take place in which more than 500,000 Sikhs have voted so far.
The SFJ has announced its plan to hold phase II of the Khalistan Referendum voting, today, in Toronto to accommodate those who were unable to vote on September 18, 2022. Thousands were unable to vote as the voting ended at 5pm and it was not possible for the organizers to accommodate nearly 40,000 Sikhs who were still in queues as the voting ended. On 29 October 2022, Khalistan Referendum Rally “1984 Sikh Genocide” was held in Toronto to highlight the genocide of Sikhs by Indian government in 1984 and the legitimacy of Khalistan movement.
In a report, Canadian Think Tanks have acknowledged Sikhs for Justice (SFJ), which is rightly campaigning to raise awareness and pressurize India to hold an official referendum on the creation of Khalistan. SFJ leader Gurpatwant Singh Pannu has already called for a referendum on Khalistan in India by 26 January 2023. He has urged the Sikh community to support the Khalistan referendum to create a Sikh homeland in “Indian Occupied Punjab”. If India is a real democracy, it should accept the referendum results. The referendum result can be leveraged in ‘Lawfare Domain’ to ask India to hold an official referendum for the purpose.
