Dal Khalsa urges Punjab govt to act against illegal possession of lands by cops
By Jagmohan Singh
AMRITSAR: Taking a strong note of state DGP Sumedh Singh Saini and few others allegedly acquiring parts of the village common land (shamlat mushtarkamalkan), the Dal Khalsa (radical Sikhs) asked Punjab Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal and Deputy Chief Minister Sukhbir Singh Badal to take strict action against alleged involvement of cops in illegal possession on government lands.
In a statement, party spokesperson Kanwar Pal Singh said Punjab Government should come out to explain to the masses about the Government action to be initiated against the errant cops who forcibly possessed the Government lands wherein officers of top post like Saini were also involved.
Kanwar Pal Singh alleged that none was in doubt about the alleged tainted and controversial past of Saini who allegedly never operated within the ambit of law whether while dealing with militants or common men. The cases of his violating law of the land were never a matter of secrecy but here it seems that Punjab government led by Badal has turned blind eye towards this sordid issue.
Quoting the reported findings of high-powered committee set-up by the state government, he said not only the illegally occupied properties of these people should be vacated but also they should be prosecuted for making a ‘fun of the law’. He said such people have no right to remain in high offices in the interest of law of the land.

Martyrs – First International Production on Sikh History
Sikhs are a unique group of people that don’t write their history in ink, they write it in blood and Martyrs, the movie, is a testament to that. Martyrs is a second a documentary created by Jagmeet Singh Samundri, after his awarding winning documentary called ‘Rise of The Khalsa’. And now he is all set to create history by being the first in India to release in cinemas with Dolby Digital. Martyrs, the movie, is going to open doors to a new way of Cinema in India.
Not only is it going open new doors, it is going to revolutionize Sikh media forever. Up until now Sikh documentaries have been very cartoonish in attempt to not violate Sikh Rehat Maryada (especially the part about not showing Guru Sahiban) but not anymore. Martyrs has been made using computer graphics, special effects and treated all the pictures in 3D animation to give this documentary feature film a professional look, not a cartoonish one. 3 years of working day and night, the topmost professional technical managed to create a documentary feature film on Sikh history that is at par with any Hollywood documentary feature film.
This top-notch 87 minutes documentary feature film is a journey that starts with Guru Nanak Dev Ji and brings us all the way to the present. In the first 15 minutes we are reminded of how and why Sikhism was created by The Guru Sahiban, the purpose of it all. Because without the basic knowledge, it is impossible to understand what is so important in Sikhism that people are willing to die for it. After laying the foundation the journey continues with the audience coming face to face with the many martyrs that have laughed in the face of death.
Starting with middle of 17th century the film talks about the various Sikh Martyrs that lost their lives under cruel rule of Aurangzeb. Upon taking the reins of Mughal Empire Aurangzeb began the cruel policy of forcing people to either accept Islam as their religion or accept death. There was no third option! Guru Tegh Bahadur Ji was one of the prominent figures of the time to accept Martyrdom to raise a voice against Aurangzab that his policy is not correct. And this movie talks about Guru Tegh Bahadur Ji’s martyrdom and the impact it had on the direction of Sikh religion. It goes on to talk about the establishment of Khalsa Panth and the many Sikh warriors that served Khalsa Panth with everything including their lives. Finally the movie comes full circle at the climax by connecting back to the present times.
Talking of present times, are the presents Sikhs ready to support the future of Sikh cinema? Or will they miss this chance and complain about not having decent Sikh videos to share with their children and grandchildren, friends and family?
Come join us this summer at theatres to welcome this new of Sikh cinema in English, Punjabi and Spanish. We promise you won’t regret it.
