Khalistan
India's welfare policies for Sikhs hits hard Pakistani ISI's Khalistani push
New Delhi: Indian government's active policies to ensure welfare of Sikh community is now acting as a massive setback for Pakistani spy agency Inter-Services Intelligence, media reports said.
Consequently, it is overburdening its proxy organizations like Sikhs For Justice (SFJ) to launch smear propaganda against India amongst the Sikh diaspora. The sinister attempts of the ISI as well as its proxies are proving to be absolute failure, adding to the frustration of Pakistan, Zee Media reported.
Since decades, Pakistan has been working on a two-point sinister agenda of promoting Khalistani separatism amongst the Sikh diaspora and sponsoring crime and terror in Punjab through cross-border smuggling, fake currency rackets and narcotics nexus, reported the news portal.
“The most successful attempt of Pakistan was the drug racket, which has been decaying Punjab and producing huge revenue to further fund terror nexus. However, the awareness in the Sikh community has substantially augmented and the Khalistani forces are increasingly becoming disenchanted towards rallying Pakistani support,” a senior security officer working with the central security establishment told Zee Media.
It seems that the policy decisions taken by the Indian government is making things tough for Pakistan's ISI in executing the Khalistan plans, experts believe.
“Pakistan’s Khalistan project is crumbling and the despondent ISI could further accelerate its efforts to fuel drug addiction in Punjab. However, times have changed and the Sikhs community, in the backdrop of rising atrocities against minorities in Pakistan, has understood that India is the natural home for Sikhs. Hence, Pakistan should realize that old plans are no longer feasible and any such agenda shall be defeated by the people of Punjab,” a security officer who is aware of the developments told Zee Media.
