MEA warning letter over Khalistan is fake, say officials

People familiar with the matter said on Tuesday that a letter shared on social media platforms about the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MEA) warning against anti-India activities around the world and the propaganda of Khalistani extremists was false.

The official stated that the letter was reportedly sent on November 8 and shared on multiple social media platforms, but it was never sent. The so-called letter talked about measures to counter the threat posed by Sikh extremists.

The security agency suspects that the deep government of Pakistan was involved in the production of this letter, because Pakistan has been fishing in troubled waters during the instigation of pro-Khalistan farmers.

Last month, there were reports that the alarm was issued after intelligence input said that the banned terrorist organization Sikh Justice Organization (SFJ) could operate on the parliament building and fly the flag of Kharistan on it.

The intelligence agency requires the authorities, including the Delhi police, to be vigilant and make careful security arrangements around the parliament.

Earlier, Gurpatwant Singh Pannu of the righteous Sikhism posted a video on YouTube calling on farmers to participate in the parliament and raise the Khalistani flag during the winter session of the parliament. The council will receive an award of $125,000.

In October, the US-based Sikhs for Justice organized a so-called referendum to decide whether Kharistan should be separated from Punjab. SFJ called on all Sikhs over 18 to vote in a referendum in Westminster.

Diplomats based in London stated that apart from the three known Khalistan movement supporters, none of the Goodwala provided a platform for the organizers. According to the report, those who did come to vote were selected Khalistanis and people with no special inclinations, who were lured to the polling station under certain pretexts.

On November 15, British police raided the Sikh Justice Office in Hounslow. The Metropolitan Police took away all electronic equipment and documents related to the so-called referendum held by the SFJ.

According to reports, SFJ members are using electronic devices to produce fake ID cards and documents related to fake voters in order to increase the number of voters during the referendum.
