Punjab Assembly session has ended. But there was one small question raised by Manpreet Singh Ayali regarding the police officers who were responsible for the killing of Shaheed Bhai Jaswant Singh Khalra where are they now?
The government did not give any answer to the question.

27 years ago, 2 important events in Punjab stopped the forced disappearances and massacre of Sikhs by the Indian State. Aug-31 was the first one - assassination of the tyrant CM Beant Singh. Salute to Shaheed Dilawar Singh for putting an end to the butchery! #parnamshaheedanu🙏🏽

"We saw Punjab 95 at a private screening recently. Directed by Honey Trehan and starring Diljit Dosanjh, the film accurately depicts the work of human rights activist Jaswant Singh Khalra. The Central Board of Film Certification has ordered over 100 cuts to thr movie. Why is the government afraid of Khalra?" @AdityaMenon22 asks the tough question. #punjab95 #diljitdosanjh #movie #khalra
Less than two weeks before his disappearance, Jaswant Singh Khalra published a lesser-known report exposing how Punjab Police was not only responsible for the mass extrajudicial killings of Sikh youth but also for eliminating its own officers.
#ExtrajudicialKillings
- This article was penned down by Jaswant Singh Khalra on May 27-1993 after the results of Lok Sabha By-Elections of Jalandhar.
- Jaswant Singh Khalra was Campaign in-charge of Lok Sabha Elections for which Justice Ajit Singh Bains was the Candidate from Shiromani Akali Dal (ASR)
The article captures the prevailing sentiments of the Sikh community during a particularly low point in the Sikh struggle, while also presenting Khalra’s political analysis of key Panthic issues.
