The North American Punjabi Association (NAPA) is strongly condemning the discriminatory treatment and religious persecution of an Amritdhari Sikh tourist, Dalvinder Singh, during his 20-day detention in Abu Dhabi. NAPA, led by Executive Director Satnam Singh Chahal, is deeply disturbed by the violations of Singh's religious rights, including the removal of his turban, kada, and kanga, along with the denial of vegetarian food and alleged mental torture. NAPA is urging the Indian government to formally protest the incident through diplomatic channels, seek assurances from the UAE that such violations won't happen again, and demand an apology and compensation for Singh and his family. NAPA also calls for sensitivity training for UAE law enforcement and the establishment of diplomatic protocols to protect the religious rights of Indian citizens. The organization stands in solidarity with the family and calls on Sikh communities, human rights organizations, and diplomatic missions to condemn the injustice. They acknowledge the efforts of the Indian Embassy, but believe more proactive measures could have been taken. (This summary is generated via AI.)
