JALANDHAR: Balwant Singh Rajoana, who is in death row in Chief Minister Beant Singh assassination case, has said that Congress and BJP in place of opposing the Blue Star memorial, as it would not be a threat to national integration, they should work to bring the culprits of anti Sikh riots of Delhi in November ’84. He has also demanded that reality behind the attack on Gen K S Brar should come out.
“In place of scratching the wounds of Sikh community balm of justice should be applied on the wounds of the community,” Rajoana said in a two page letter written from his cell in Nabha jail and sent through his sister Kamaldeep Kaur.
He said that those opposing the memorial had no sympathy for the innocents killed in Operation Blue Star and November 84 but Congress rather honoured the perpetrators of Delhi riots by giving them high posts in the government. “These killers remained patriots even as they had blood of innocents on their hands,” he has written while taking a dig at Congress. “No justice has been given to the victims in the last 28 years,” he said. “By using the memorial issue they want to bury the issues of justice for victims of November 84 for ever,” he argued.
Rajoana has even suggested that the attack on Brar was a part of a game-plan Indian intelligence apparatus which was hell bent upon scuttling the memorial and were raising bogey of militancy. “The community should remain vigilant to such game-plans” he said.
“It is coming out that Indian Departments were unaware of his visit to London then how could the information reach to the assailants. There is definitely something fishy in it,” he said.
