In the statement headlined, “Rahul Gandhi reverberates SFJ’s position on Khalistan”, Gurpatwant Singh Pannun of the SFJ said: “Rahul’s statement on existential threat to Sikhs in India” is not only bold and pioneering but is also firmly grounded in the factual history of what Sikhs have been facing under successive regimes in India since 1947...

Terming the SFJ’s support for Rahul’s remarks unprecedented, the BJP said Rahul and the Congress were “indeed against India.”

“This is unprecedented. Sikhs For Justice, the banned Khalistan terror group, has backed Rahul Gandhi’s misinformed comments on the Sikh community, in the US... Congress and Rahul Gandhi are indeed against India. They are doing everything possible to destroy India’s social fabric,” BJP’s IT cell chief Amit Malviya said.
