1947 did not bring independence for Sikhs in India where followers of Sikhism, the world's 5th largest religion are labeled as "Hindus"; Sikh Golden Temple was destroyed by Indian Army; Sikhs were subjected to genocide in Nov 84 and thousands were extra-judicially killed by security forces for demanding right to self determination.
Sikhs demand the Independence of Punjab, their historical homeland, BECAUSE Sikhs:
- Have a separate religion;
- Are the indigenous people of Punjab; and
- Have been subjected to genocide in India;
THUS, Sikhs have the right to self-determination under Article 1 of:
- International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights ; and
- International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights.
WE URGE America to Support the Independence of Indian Occupied PUNJAB
