In a dramatic escalation of separatist sentiment, Gurpatwant Singh Pannun, the leader of Sikhs for Justice (SFJ) and a senior figure in the Khalistan movement, has issued a fiery condemnation of what he called “Indian military aggression,” claiming an open rebellion is brewing within India’s own armed forces.
According to Dawn News, Pannun revealed that Sikh soldiers, acting on his appeal, hoisted the Pakistani flag inside Punjab’s Deshmesh College in a bold show of solidarity with Pakistan. Slogans such as “Sikhs Welcome Pakistani Army” were also reportedly painted on the college walls.
In a viral Instagram post, Pannun went further, alleging that Sikh troops in the Indian army have begun to defy orders, with their phones confiscated and families warned against communication. He also played an alleged audio recording of a Sikh soldier, suggesting internal dissent and refusal to fight against Pakistan.
Pannun declared that Sikh soldiers would now align with the Pakistan Army, vowing to raise Khalistan flags on military tanks and build a sovereign Khalistan with Delhi as its capital.
Meanwhile, in London, Sikh protesters stomped on posters of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi during an anti-India demonstration. A video of the protest was uploaded to SFJ’s official Instagram page.
The Indian government has not yet issued an official response to these explosive claims, but tensions are expected to rise as the situation develops.
