Los Angeles: Khalistan referendum is being held in US city Los Angeles today.
The entire Sikh community is eagerly awaiting this referendum which is an opportunity for them to voice their aspirations for a sovereign homeland in India.
Preparations for the referendum are in full swing, with Sikh activists considering it a significant milestone in their struggle for an independent Khalistan.
The murder of Canadian citizen Hardeep Singh Nijjar intensified the Khalistan movement as Indian intelligence agency “RAW” was found involved in the murder.
While India has been repeatedly involved in terrorist activities and designs in other countries, the killing of Sikh leaders has put India’s reputation to questions.
Amid growing international scrutiny, concerns over the safety of religious minorities in India continue to rise. Whether Sikh or Muslim, many believe that minorities face increasing threats within the country. The referendum is expected to send a strong message that the Sikh community stands united in its pursuit of an independent homeland.
