Sikh separatist leader Amarjeet Singh has appealed to Pakistan to help create a separate Sikh state in the region. According to Express News, Singh in an interview asked Pakistan to provide diplomatic support to the Sikh community in its struggle to get rid of Indian ‘state terrorism’.
To a question about September 18 attack on Indian forces in Uri area of held Kashmir, he said the Indian government was blaming Pakistan to cover up its state terrorism. “Why would Pakistan attack Indian forces, when the freedom struggle in Kashmir is getting stronger?” he asked.
Singh cited 2002 events to unearth Indian conspiracies and said at a time when US former president Bill Clinton was scheduled to visit India, 35 Sikhs were killed before his visit to divert attention from the Khalistan movement.
