Indian-Canadian MP accuses Canadian Parliament of protecting pro-Khalistan elements

Ottawa: Indian-Canadian MP Ramesh Singh Sangha has attacked a few Sikh MPs in the Canadian Parliament for protecting pro-Khalistan people.

In his virtual speech in Parliament on Wednesday, Sangha told ANI, “I am a proud Sikh by birth. Like Sikhs in Canada, I am not a Khalistani extremist or a sympathiser. However, there are few Sikhs in Canada as well as in this House (Parliament).”

While slamming the extremist elements, Sangha mentioned Canada’s Intelligence Report 2018 in which the words “Sikh (Khalistani) Extremism” was used initially, reports ANI.

The Canadian MP also said that he and other members of the Sikh community were grateful as the Government took away the word “Sikh” from the report…."but it was shameful on part of some Sikh MPs and Ministers that pressurised the government to remove the word ‘Khalistan’ from the report”, the Indian news agency reported.
