Amritpal is not a khalistani

Bhai Amritpal Singh is a activists who is on a mission to free Punjab from drugs and give Punjab there rights. Amanpreet2004 (talk) 18:56, 19 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

In his speeches, Singh often argues that the demand for Khalistan is absolutely justified. He also seems to hold considerable appeal for his followers.[1]

In another statement, he is quoted as saying, “We lost our (Sikh) empire to the British in 1849 and we are asking for that empire back.”[2]

-- Kautilya3 (talk) 01:41, 20 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Sikhs have been slaves for 150 years. We have developed a slave mentality. First, we were slaves to the British, now we are slaves to the Hindus. The only way we can be totally free is when we have Sikh rule,” he said in Punjabi while addressing a gathering in Behbal Kalan village on the seventh anniversary of the Behbal Kalan ‘killings’ earlier this month.[3]

-- Kautilya3 (talk) 16:29, 21 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

“Why is Khalistan such a bad thing?,” he said in a TV interview. “We have the right to self-determination and say we want a separate country in a peaceful manner. Why am I being threatened by my home minister for asking for my democratic right?”[4]

-- Kautilya3 (talk) 09:22, 23 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • But I agree that the "Khalistani" label has been overblown in the recent round. Until recently, the media has been calling him a "Khalistan sympathiser". Now that the police are chasing him, it has been blown up.
The main concern is really his tendency to armed militancy, stockpiling arms, and roaming around with armed supporters. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 01:57, 20 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Punjab has highest gun possession but lowest gun crime rate in India. Government just fool people by saying not to possess arms so that they can justify their crime to the people. Most of the gun crime happen with unlicensed weapons, and their people only acquire licensed weapons. Independent hawk (talk) 11:30, 20 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The term Khalistani is used for anyone who supports the demand of separate state of Khalistan. That is the definition CrusaderForTruth2023 (talk) 13:42, 23 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Definition by who? There is no state document that defines who is a Khalistani-it clearly seems to be an arbitrary label without any credible definition. Princhest01 (talk) 14:51, 24 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
There is a distinction between changing drug policy and demanding more state autonomy and demanding secession to produce a theocratic ethnonationalist state (Khalistan, Sikh Empire, etc). I as a Sikh also desire to free Punjab of drugs but we must adhere to the principle of neutrality on Wikipedia. PresidentCoriolanus (talk) 05:10, 26 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected edit request on 29 April 2023

In the lead, please change the sentence, "He was arrested on 23 April 2023." to, "He was arrested on 23 April 2023 due to his armed struggle for secession from India." 49.205.150.35 (talk) 18:09, 29 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

 Partly done: I have added for attempted murder, among other charges so as to be in line with what sources say. The requested addition verbatim was not supported by said sources (at least the ones relating to the arrest, I didn't check all of them). —Sirdog (talk) 19:12, 29 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Attempted murder and all other charges are fake and he surrendered he wasn’t arrested. Police never surrounded the gurudwara as the people of the Rode village says. This article is not neutral its one sided on the government side 2001:569:7DCF:5400:CD97:57BA:5DE0:A5BA (talk) 15:12, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
 Not done for now: please establish a consensus for this alteration before using the {{Edit semi-protected}} template. >>> Extorc.talk 16:01, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Surrendered not ARRESTED

He was not arrested he surrendered you can see in his videos before surrender 2001:569:7DCF:5400:CD97:57BA:5DE0:A5BA (talk) 15:08, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

rces clearly state he was arrested after the gurudwara was surrounded and he had to surrender. >>> Extorc.talk 16:01, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Reverts

@Jattlife121 Donot revert me now without discussion. WP:PUBLICFIGURE states that for Public Figures we simply report what the RS says and not wait for a conviction in incidents and cases. >>> Extorc.talk 07:22, 17 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Point to me to the exact the line it says this. Just with Donald Trump trial, nothing was done until a conviction was made. Per other Public Figures that have ongoing trials, they aren't guilty by media until conviction. Have a read yourself of the page "A living person accused of a crime is presumed innocent until convicted by a court of law. Accusations, investigations and arrests do not amount to a conviction".

  • See, there is a fundamental flaw in your reasoning. I am demanding we write exactly what the source says.
    • "Supporters of Amritpal Singh ... vandalised a gurdwara in Jalandhar Monday night. Singh visited various gurdwaras Monday ... as a part of his ongoing state-wide march titled ‘Khalsa Wahir’."[1]
    • "A group led by Sikh preacher Amritpal Singh ... his supporters broke the furniture at a gurdwara in Biharipur village in protest against the seating arrangement."[2]
Sources undoubtedly claim that he participated in violence. Your reference to WP:BLPCRIME is faulty because BLPCRIME deals with inclusion and not tone. Here, there is no doubt that BLPCRIME doesn't apply on Singh and hence the content can be included in the article and that the sources clearly say he participated in violence.
  • "I understand you have an unfavorable view of the individual in question as per your edits", please stick to the merits of the conversation and not involve inclinations. I am following the policy and you should too.
  • Your second revert of my edit amounts to WP:EDITWAR. Kindly refrain from such actions.
