A jailed extremist's appeal for peace ahead of a protest demanding his release raises concerns.
An alleged video of Jagtar Singh Hawara, a pro-Khalistan extremist, appealing for peace ahead of the August 15 march by Qaumi Insaaf Morcha has gone viral. The Qaumi Insaaf Morcha is organizing a protest from YPS Chowk to Punjab Governor's residence demanding release of Sikh prisoners including Hawara. The SGPC supports this, adding weight to their cause. Meanwhile, the Punjab government seeks parole for Hawara, convicted in Beant Singh’s assassination. This march, backed by SGPC and timed near 2027 elections, highlights the Bandi Singhs issue's political significance.
