Sources: Pannun is attempting, but failing, to incite violence during PM Modi’s Ayodhya roadshow
Khalistani separatist Gurpatwant Singh Pannun is inciting Indian Muslims against Prime Minister Narendra Modi after he teamed up with terrorist organizations in Kashmir. However, authorities stated that Pannun is a wanted terrorist who is implicated in many NIA cases, something that both Muslims and Sikhs in India are fully aware of, therefore his efforts would fail.
US, UK, and Canada will get proof of Pannun’s most recent provocation, in which he urged violence during PM Modi’s roadshow in Ayodhya on December 30. Pannun, the general counsel of the banned Sikhs for Justice organization, has dual citizenship from the US and Canada. India classified Pannun as an “individual terrorist” in 2020.
In an interview that was published on Wednesday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi told the Financial Times that India would investigate whatever evidence it learned about its purported ties to an abortive attempt to kill Pannun in the US. Modi told the British newspaper, “If someone gives us any information, we would definitely look into it.”
The US Justice Department filed charges against a man suspected of masterminding the attempted assassination last month, claiming that an Indian government official had supervised the scheme. India had voiced its worries and distanced itself from the purported plan, announcing that it would look into the American concerns officially and take “necessary follow-up action” based on the recommendations of a panel that was established on November 18.
In a grave escalation of threats against India, Pannun had inquired in his most recent hate speech about the “24/7 security blanket” that Prime Minister Narendra Modi, External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar, and National Security Advisor Ajit Doval had.
Pantun referred to them as the “axis of evil,” threatening that they should be “ready to face consequences” and bringing up the death of Khalistani rebel Hardeep Singh Nijjar in Canada as the “first bullet” that India had fired. 180 days have passed since Najjar was killed, and Pannun took pride in the violence shown by supporters of Khalistani in Vancouver.
On November 19, Pannun published a video last month in which it threatened passengers on Air India aircraft. In addition, he had threatened to assault the Parliament of India.
