Dear Mr. Narsimhanrao,
Re: Air India flight 182-Jue22, 1985
Once again, the time has come when your morally and ethically devoid foreign diplomatic machinery, and alleged ambassadors of India and your administration, will be stepping up their hate campain against the ‘Sikhs under the disguise of the 8th anniversary of the ill-fated Air India flight 182 that took off from the pious land of Canada. Although the politically dominated Indian judiciary system has been serving its New Delhi masters well, delivering the judgment in New Delhi’s favor by holding the Sikhs responsible for Al 182, ‘no other court has yet concluded that the Sikhs have been responsible for the mishap that happened off the coast of Ireland. You, as home minister in mid 1980s, along with the Indian administration, have been engaged in using your propaganda machinery (newspapers, Indian television or Doordarshan, sending cultural and sports teams and journalists like Jagjit Singh Anand abroad, academics who speaks the language of Brahmins, or high class bigots, slander Sikh Gurus and their teachings) to slander, persecute, terrorize and torture the Sikhs since “Operation Blue Star” of June, 1984. However, Indian administrations including your own have shed no light on the state run airline system. In foreign news media, Indian Airlines flights are aptly referred to as “flying coffins,” especially when one considers what has happened during the airline’s ‘operation in the first six months of 1993.1 was wondering if you or your board of enquiries have as yet decided which group you wish to link these unfortunate events with, the Sikhs or Muslims?
Tam particularly interested to know, assuming you would care to answer this letter, whether the incident that took place in the late 1970s at the Bombay airport for a scheduled Air India flight to a Middle East country, in which then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi was travelling, was also caused by the Sikhs or by some disgruntled Air India employee(s). According to the findings of a one man commission, conducted by a judge of Maharashtra High Court, the first aircraft (upon which boarding had taken place and Indira Gandhi and her entourage was on board) did not start despite an Air India maintenance crew’s three hours struggle to fix the problem. After this struggle, a second aircraft was towed in, passengers, baggage and cargo was reloaded, but the second aircraft did not start. A third aircraft was brought in and the scheduled flight took off to its destination after the delay of several hours. The findings, as I recall, of the commission were that in the first craft electrical wires were found cut and the second aircraft had more water than aviation fuel, Did the enquiry commission conclude that the Sikhs were responsible, under Indian norms, for the electrical wires and high water ratio in the aviation fuel, or did some disgruntled maintenance employee(s) want to play with the lives of innocent but nonpolitical passengers or was it because Indira (a comupt, morally and ethically ‘bankrupt person) happened to be one of the politicians on board, who had no regard for the Indian masses.
Since the Iate 1970s and particularly since June 1984, what argument or explanation can you advance for the Air India 182 disaster not being a creation of Rajiv Gandhi, his administration (of which you were a member) and Indian Research and Analysis Wing, the latter which is believed to be responsible to only the prime minister. Indicators clearly point out that it was done to slander the Sikhs, destroy their integrity in the eyes of their fellow countrymen, and make them a criminal tribe has done before by bigots like Nehru, Patel, Trivedi, Govalkar, Pant, Charan Singh, V.P_Singh, Chandrasekhar, and Balram Jhakhar, who said that “to preserve the unity of India, if we have to eradicate 2crore or 20 million Sikhs, we will do so,” according to Sardar Amarjit Singh Khalsa, Spokesperson, Panthic Committee. Such defamation is aided by the Sikh quislings like Pratap Singh Kairon, Giani Kartar Singh, Kuldip Brar, K.P.Gill, Beant Singh, Surjit Bamala, Harchand Singh Longowal, Darshan Singh Ragi, Umrao Singh, Rajinder Singh Sparrow (Grewal), Zail ‘Singh, Giani Kirpal Singh, K.P.Gill, Inspector General (Prisons) Katoch, Khushwant Singh, Patwant Singh, Tagyit Singh Arora (who justified the Operation Black Thunder) and many non-Sikhs like JF_Reibero, Gen. Vaidhya, H.K.L.Bhagat, and army officer Ishar Khan, to name a few.
