NEW DELHE Mujahdeens are persuading the Sikhs of Jalalahad to join them. There are twenty thousand Indians including Sikhs in Jallalahad according to PTI (The Official News Agency of India) which is the second highest city of Afghanistan.

It is also reputed that many Sikhs left Jallalahad after what it said was the recent attack by Mujahdeens and two gurdwaras, gurdwara Guru Gobind Singh and Gurdwara Nanak Darshan were badly damaged in that attack. The Sikhs reaching Pakistan allege that Indian pilots intendedly destroyed these Gurdwaras so as to put a rift between Sikhs and Mujahdeen.
