Chandigarh, January 28, 2014: The Shiromani Akali Dal president and Punjab Deputy Chief Minister Sukhbir Singh Badal said here today asked what moral and constitutional right the Congress led-UPA had to stay in power at the center after the AICC vice president and Congress party campaign in-charge Rahul Gandhi had openly admitted the involvement of his party in Independent India’s worst and most brutal massacre in 1984.
“The cat is finally out of the bag. After thirty years of denial by his party and family, Rahul has finally spoken what the entire world has always known as the truth: that the Congress party and the Union government led by his father late Rajiv Gandhi had presided over the execution of the most beastly massacre of innocents in the streets of the national capital in 1984.”
“Rahul Gandhi says that he was a child when the 1984 massacre took place. It is significant that even as a child, he (Rahul) was able to observe the involvement of his partymen in this massacre - so open , unashamed and widespread was the Congress party’s involvement , ” said Sukhbir Singh Badal in a statement here this evening.
Sukhbir Singh said however that he had been shocked by Rahul Gandhi’s stubborn refusal to apologise to the Sikhs, the nation and entire mankind despite his confession of his party’s self-confessed guilt of torching and hacking thousands of innocent men, women and children in Delhi’s streets.
The Deputy Chief Minister also asked all Punjab Congressmen to resign en masse after Rahul Gandhi’s open admission that Congressmen were involved in the massacre of thousands of Sikhs in 1984. “What are you doing in the Congress whose principal figure admits to party’s hands being red with the blood of innocent Sikhs. Thousands of innocent Sikhs were brutally torched and hacked to death on the streets of the national capital. If the likes of Partap Singh Bajwa have any conscience at all, they should step down and offer apologies to the people for their continuance in that party for so many years,” said Sukhbir Singh Badal .
On Rahul Gandhi’s observation that Modi was responsible for the Gujarat riots because he was the Chief Minister of the state when the riots happened, Sukhbir Singh Badal reminded Rahul Gandhi that when thousands of Sikhs were brutally murdered in national capital, his father , the late Rajiv Gandhi was the Prime Minister. “Unlike Modi, the Rajiv Gandhi Government and the Congress party have not been given a clean chit by the Courts. Rahul Gandhi may have been a child in 1984, but the whole world knows and has repeatedly provided evidence how the government at that time had actually planned and executed the killings of Sikh men, women and children. It became a mad government of killers, looters , arsonists and looters, and Rahul Gandhi must have enough evidence by now,” said the SAD president and Punjab Deputy CM in his statement.
Badal also described as ridiculous Gandhi’s assertion that the government tried to stop the massacre of Sikhs. “They were the killers, as shown by Rahul’s own confession. The entire world, eminent jurists, commissions and independent and respected voices from the media and the civil rights and liberties organizations have given conclusive proof of how the government led by Rajiv Gandhi itself organized the pogrom. Even his own party had to bow to pressure and drop its mainstream leaders like Jagdish Tytler and Sajjan Kumar from the candidates’ lists. And yet, Rahul insists that the government tried to stop the massacre.”
The Congressmen, including late Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi, AICC President Sonia Gandhi and Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh maintained a criminal silence on the role of their party in executing the most inhuman horror against the Sikhs. Now, after Rahul Gandhi has been cornered into making this confession by the media, the Congress and its leaders owe both an apology and an explanation to the nation,” said the SAD president.//punjab news live, punjab news online, punjab news, punjab news headlines, punjab breaking news, india news, punjab news, world news, sikh news,
