Khalistanis In Canada
The desire among Punjabi youth to settle in Canada is rising day by day. But it is not possible for everyone to get the ‘selective’ Canada Visa. On the other hands, Nijjar and other pro-Khalistan elements like Moninder Singh Bual, Parminder Pangli, Bhagat Singh Brar used gullible Sikh youth in Canada to carry out their pro-Khalistani agenda from Canadian soil. But they face shortage of ‘foot-soldiers’ because of lack of support in the diaspora.
This ‘demand and supply matrix’ was exploited by PKEs in Canada to come up with a novel idea by sponsoring gullible Sikh youth from Punjab for medium-skilled jobs like plumber, truck drivers or religious work like Sewadars and Pathis and Ragis in Gurdwaras controlled by them. They sponsored their visas and visits to Canada in lieu of exploiting them for doing pro-Khalistan activities in Canada like participating in anti-India protests and programmes and conducting radical-religious congregations.
After that, they identify and spot Indian youth/students in Canada who are finding it difficult to sustain themselves and need support in terms of sundry jobs and shelter. The illegal immigrants to Canada and the students who complete their studies in Canada but have not been able to find suitable jobs, are the most susceptible. PKEs offer them shelter and low scale jobs for sustenance using Gurdwara resources. These ‘indebted’ youth the join ‘their Khalistan brigade in Canada’ willingly or unwillingly.
When ISI backed Khalistani group ‘Sikhs For Justice’/SFJ was finding difficult to get support for its anti-India campaign ‘Punjab Independence Referendum’, Nijjar and his friends used these ‘foot-soldiers’ to give an impression that their campaign was succeeding. It’s easier for these PKEs is to now get more and more such people as they control nearly 30+ Gurdwaras in Surrey, Brampton, Edmonton etc.
However, Nijjar, Bual and Bhagat Singh Brar did not stop at this. They formed an unholy nexus with gangsters in Punjab like Davinder Bambhia gang, Arsh Dalla gang, Lakhbir Landa gang and brought these wanted gangsters to Canada in lieu of using their operatives in Punjab for terror attacks.
On the other hand, pro-Khalistan party Shiromani Akali Dal/Amritsar charges one to two lakh rupees for giving ‘letter’ to youth use for seeking political asylum in Canada falsely claiming that they were party cadres and being persecuted in India on religious ground. Such youth when they reach Canada invariably end up joining the pro-Khalistan elements there.
Canada overtly may be very sensitive to human trafficking. Any genuine traveler to Canada in India knows that getting Canadian Visa is extremely difficult and time consuming. Surprisingly, this human trafficking channel run by PKEs remains undisrupted under the very nose of Canadian agencies.
