Preet Kaur Gill raised the issue of oppression of Sikhs in the lower house of the British Parliament (House of Commons). She said in her address that Sikhs living in Britain are in the hit list of agents 'with links to India'. Gill referred to alleged assassination plots against Sikhs abroad.

 

She said that in recent months, the Five Eyes countries (Intelligence Alliance of Australia, Canada, New Zealand, US and UK) have expressed concern over the action of agents linked to India targeting Sikh activists in the United Kingdom. What is important to note is that alleged murders and murder conspiracies have been foiled. She further went on to say that the US and Canada consider such matters as a challenge to their sovereignty and their democratic values. Given reports of British Sikhs facing similar threats, she posed the question to the government regarding the steps that they are taking for their safety.

 

In response to MP Preet Kaur Gill's question, Security Minister Tom Tugendhat said that if there is any threat to any British citizen from any foreign entity, then immediate action will be taken. The Sikh community has the right to be safe in Britain like every other community. All British citizens are equal, regardless of their colour, religion, belief or political allegiance.

 

Canada accused India of killing Khalistani terrorist Nijjar:

 

On the evening of June 18, 2023, two youths opened fire on Khalistan Tiger Force chief terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar in the parking lot of the Gurudwara in British Columbia, Canada, killing him on the spot. Nijjar had been declared a fugitive by India.

 

After 3 months i.e. on 18 September 2023, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau gave a statement in the House of Commons i.e. the Parliament there where he alleged that agents of the Indian government may have been involved in the murder of Nijjar. Trudeau was referring to the Indian intelligence agency RAW.

 

America accused India of conspiracy to murder terrorist Pannu

US had accused India of conspiring to murder Khalistani terrorist Gurpatwant Singh Pannu, which was foiled by US. According to the Financial Times report, American officials had foiled a plot to assassinate a Sikh separatist on American soil. Allegedly, this conspiracy was being hatched by agent linked to Indian Intelligence and Pannun was being targeted.
