ਤਿਰੰਗੇ ਨੂੰ ਚੜਾਉਣ ਤੋਂ ਖਾਸ ਇਸ ਵਾਰ ਹੀ ਪਰਹੇਜ਼ ਕਿਉਂ?
"When fascism comes to the America it will be wrapped in the flag." ~ Sinclair Lewis
ਝੰਡੇ, ਚਿੰਨ, ਰਾਸ਼ਟਰਵਾਦੀ ਵਿਚਾਰਧਾਰਾ ਆਦਿ.... ਜੋ ਇਹਨਾਂ ਦਿਨਾਂ ਚ ਬਹੁਤ ਪ੍ਰਚਾਰੀ ਜਾ ਰਹੀ ਹੈ। ਇਹਨਾਂ ਦੇ ਹਾਨੀਆਂ ਭਰੇ ਭੇਦਾਂ ਤੋਂ ਸਾਡਾ ਯੂਥ ਅਨਜਾਣ ਹੈ।
Sikh fighters remain vigilant in their elevated positions around the Parkarma. Sant Jarnail Singh Ji and the military commander of the Khalsa Fauj General Shabeg Singh lead the defence from Sri Akal Takhat.
The Khalsa Fauj knew the main attack was imminent. All necessary fortifications were made in strategic buildings, including Sri Akal Takht, Darshani Deori,
the Parkarma and the Ramgharia Bungeh, which alongside the water tank near Guru Ram Das Serai and Teja Samundri Hall, served as the vantage points for the Sikh fighters.

THE RESOLUTE AND FAITHFUL KHALSA
On June 2nd the Indian forces opened their checkpoints and military perimeter around Sri Darbar Sahib, allowing thousands of travelling Sikh pilgrims to gather for the Shaheedi Purab of Dhan Sri Guru Arjun Dev Ji.
These Sikh pilgrims were then deliberately trapped inside Sri Darbar Sahib by the sudden closing of checkpoints and the perimeter, giving their forces shoot on sight orders.
The Sangat and Sikh fighters from all Jujaroo Jathebandia came together to perform Bhai Mengha Singh Babbar’s Antim Saskar (last rites) within Sri Darbar Sahib.
On June 1st 1984 the Indian state put into motion an attack plan that they had spent over a year preparing in military encampments in the Doon Valley where a complete replica of the Sri Darbar Sahib site had been constructed.
The aim was to crush Sikh leadership, our Sikhi spirit, and the political agitations that had been emanating from Sri Darbar Sahib.
Over 75,000 Indian troops had been inserted into Punjab with thousands positioned in Amritsar and the surrounding area.
In continuation of the Indian states unchecked aggression against Sikhs on June 1st Indian forces took final positions around Sri Darbar Sahib. In order to demoralise Sikh defenders Indian troops began firing indiscriminately into the Sikh Sangat.
