Modi scolds Trudeau over Sikh protests in Canada against India
- Thread starter The Oracle
- Start date
All of us on this Board who condemns Modi's actions are supposed to be from "Pakistan" according to "kautilya logic"...............Hilarious but not surprising coming from a BJP activist!!Yeah Economic Times is not reliable. But "datatrained"? Sure, may be that is what you guys like in Pakistan.
Careful as kautilya will now label you as being from "Pakistan". This was what I stated in the past and that his when he labelled me as such!!
What the F**k is ISI? You seem to know more about Pakistani politics!!You must be an ISI activist.
No, lets leave the blame to Ghandi for instigating the violence that spilled over here as well.
As far as we know, Air India wouldn't have happened except in response to Hindu nationalist violence.
Listing a cause to an event isn't 'justifying' it.
It was still terrorism as much as the assassination of Ghandi and the mobs of Hindu nationalists that followed and the Air India bombing.
No, its not the right move for India to assassinate Canadians.
Modi gave CSIS the allegations and CSIS decided they weren't serious enough to act on.
Which means Modi killed someone who likely wasn't a threat to India, just a leader in a fringe separatist group in a foreign country.
Don't defend assassinating Canadians.
Canada, rightly or wrongly, has always been a refuge for people fleeing persecution. The Irish, the Ukes, the Jews, the Sikhs, blacks, Afghans, Syrians, etc.
Modi’s Party Linked With Most Hate Speech in India, Report Finds
Some 80% of the 255 documented incidents of “hate speech gatherings targeting Muslims” occurred in Bharatiya Janata Party-ruled states and union territories, according to a report from Hindutva Watch. The Washington DC-based research group tracks hate crimes and inflammatory speech against Muslims and other minorities in India.
Researchers wrote that India has seen an “escalating trend” of anti-Muslim speech since Modi rose to power in 2014. The report found that more than half of the documented incidents this year were orchestrated by the ruling BJP and affiliates including the Bajrang Dal, Vishwa Hindu Parishad and Sakal Hindu Samaj. Those groups have ties to the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, or RSS, the ideological parent of the BJP.
Abhay Verma, a senior member of the BJP in New Delhi, called the report “totally baseless” in an interview. “We don’t divide the country and people based on their religions,” he said by phone. “There’s no support from the BJP in favor of hate speech.”
The report is the first of its kind to document hate speech against Muslims after India’s crime bureau stopped collecting data on hate crimes in 2017. Hindutva Watch relied on social media and news outlets in gathering data. It used data scrapping techniques to locate verifiable videos of hate speech events, and then conducted an in-depth investigation of incidents through journalists and researchers, according to an explanation of the methodology.
Though India doesn’t have an official definition for hate speech, the research group used language from the United Nations, which characterizes hate speech as “any form” of communication that employs “prejudiced or discriminatory language towards an individual group based on attributes such as religion, ethnicity, nationality and race.”
The report found that Maharashtra, Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and Gujarat witnessed the highest number of gatherings with hate speech. A third of documented incidents occurred in states scheduled to hold legislative elections this year.
Hindutva Watch, which monitored activities in 15 states and two union territories, also reported that about 64% of the events propagated anti-Muslim “conspiracy theories,” including the claim that Muslims are luring Hindu women into marriage to convert them.
Inflicting violence against Muslims was a rallying call in 33% of the events, the report said, and 11% included appeals for Hindus to boycott Muslims. The remaining gatherings featured “hate-filled and sexist speech” targeting Muslim women, according to the report.
“Rather than combating hate speech, government officials have frequently engaged in it themselves,” the report said. “As this report documents, some of the purveyors of hate speech include chief ministers, legislators, and senior leaders from the ruling BJP.”

Such an honest government.
So they say. You don't accept Canada and the 5 eyes saying they have evidence of Indian government involvement in the assassination but you want us to believe India's accusation?
Sorry but supporting a separatist movement does not make one a terrorist. The fact that other supporters of that independence movement are terrorists doesn't mean you can treat everyone like a terrorist. At least according to Canada, a terrorist is someone involved in attacks targeting civilians and if India provided evidence that any Canadian citizen was doing that, Canada would act.
Did you see me defending Pakistan in any manner? Show me where I did so??
Of course you also failed to mention about women's rights or lack of it in parts of Pakistan.
Still do not know what are how your logic links me to Pakistan in any manner. On the other hand your passionate defence of Modi is more in line with with the BJP.
You do not seem to be concerned about the fate of the Christians although we know that around 250 churches have burnt in a single state of Manipur in just 36 hours:
Manipur archbishop: 249 churches destroyed in 36 hours
Archbishop Dominic Lumon criticized the authorities’ response to the disorder, which broke out May 3.
www.pillarcatholic.com
It is just not Manipur but other states as well, when 142 religious minorities have been killed, and 65,000 people have been uprooted from their homes. This is due to the Government encouraging these Hindu Religious Extremists as several reliable sources have revealed this fact:
Extremists Are Destroying Indian Christians’ Homes and Shattering Their Lives - Christianity Today
For nearly two decades, mob violence has driven believers from their communities and upended their sense of security.
www.christianitytoday.com
We can agree to denounce The despicable Pakistani Mobs who have attacked the Christian settlements. I am in no way defending these acts of violence against minority communities, so I still have to see your logic linking me to Pakistan in any manner. When I showed you all the proof of the Christian Churches being burnt down, Christians homes being also destroyed, yet you are the one defending these BJP linked individuals carrying out these acts of violence.IDK but we are Christians, and we don't seem to be attacked by Hindu Nationalists. Not saying it does not happen, but I think those who live in glass houses.....
Meanwhile:

A mob attack on a Christian settlement in Pakistan highlights the need for the authorities to take immediate action to protect religious minorities from violence.www.hrw.org
Now The NYT even revealed that Nijjar had fled India as he was a Separatist for the State of Khalistan. You claimed that he was linked to killings in India. Yet there was no proof of it, and this was exactly what The Indian Government alleged about him:
who-is-hardeep-singh-nijjar-india.html
Yet, apparently all he was doing was to organize a referendum in his State of Punjab where 60% of the inhabitants are Sikh. If the Indian Government went ahead with such a referendum like we did in Quebec then once again they could have put this whole issue to rest, if the majority did not want any partition whatsoever!!
Except that we've now had a foreign party committing terrorism inside Canada.
Which needs to be dealt with unless your concern with terrorism is lip service.
Or that they are unable to release the proof they have because of Five Eyes agreements and diplomatic reasons.
a) 30 years ago it was a surprise when Ghandi instigated violence that lead to terrorism by both sides. Who was expecting this to happen? Clearly not India, who failed way more than Canada.
b) That is not a given, that is your own racial bias.
If anyone said anything like this about Quebec separatists in Canada CSIS would be watching them very carefully.
They only report it after it gets leaked to the broader public via protests or social media. It usually takes months for Government and the police to actually investigate crimes on minorities.
These people here Canadian citizens and they have the right to freedom of speech. Say Khalistan in India and the Hindu Nationalist will have you removed for good.
