All Set for Unprecedented Sikh Justice March on Capitol Hill
WSN Bureau
Hundreds of Sikhs will be converging on Capitol Hill on November 1, 2009 as part of the Justice March in Washington to apprise the world community of nations about the genocide of Sikhs in India in 1984, persistent denial of justice for quarter of a century and continuing discrimination against the community and other minorities by New Delhi.
Milling crowds of Sikhs on the Capitol Hill will be demanding nomenclature of Genocide for the ruthless, planned, gory killings and burning of thousands of Sikhs in the national capital of India, New Delhi, and condoned by top political leaders including the then Prime Minister Rajiv gandhi who actually said on national TV that when a big tree falls, the earth shakes.

Sikhs for Justice, which planned the march, has been receiving across the board support for the ambitious and headline hogging march that is being backed by almost all gurdwara committees and panthic organisations.
Sikh Youth of America is backing the march to the hilt and its president Gurinder Singh Maana has appealed to the Sikh sangat in the US and all other justice loving people to participate in the March and underline their solidarity with the Sikh Nation.
Across the world, Sikhs mark November 1 as the Sikh Genocide Day ever since 1984 when blood thirsty mobs with full support of the rulers of the day went about looting and killing Sikhs in Delhi and elsewhere as political establishment, police and other security personnel either passively watched or actively helped the marauders.
