Dear Editor,
It was a matter of great pride to learn from your esteemed columns that a young Sikh youth was an aspirant for the U.S. House of representative. The young man, Neil Dhillon had expressed that he was a man with a mission a mission to open the corridors of the American Congress to American Asians and said, “I am proud of being a Sikh…however lam Asian American first and I associate myself with this 1.2 million Community and I want to be considered their representative in the Congress (I) ‘want to break the glass ceiling.”
A wave of great delight had run through whole Sikh nation when Moh Schota was elected as a leg is lator in British Columbia, Canada, His rise to the status of a Cabinet Minister augmented this elation, When he speaks, his contentions carry so much weight that the media clamors to catch his words.
It goes without saying how much Sikh mind is excited on observing Manmohan Singh. Finance Minister of India overpowering the whole world in economic field.
Dr Aulakh urged you in his letter (W.S.N, Dated Oct.15, 1993) to stop printing articles about Neil Dhillon. None of the two prominent personalities mentioned above, and many more like them, has ever commented on or favored the issue of Khalistan, neither inside the Government chambers nor outside, Shall we say that any news pertaining to their achievements is not worthy of pride for the Sikhs, and not significant enough to be printed in the W.S.N.?
There are a number of blemishing facts against Neil Dhillon as specified by Dr.Aulakh, Balbir Singh Ragi, and Ram Singh. May be they are: worth deliberating before we start revering Neil Dhillon. But had your correspondent not dealt with Mr.Dhillon’s story in the first place, none of these three gentlemen would have come forward to elucidate public mind. By cutting of the news of opposition you would help opposition to flourish on its false notions
Dr.Aulakh, please, take notice that what Oscar Wilde says, “By invariably discussing the unnecessary it makes us understand what things are requisite for culture, and what are not.”
