Propaganda Against Sikhs, Year 1987
On January 16, 1987 Indian Commandoes staged a "Mock" Hijack of a "Genuine" Domestic flight with more than 90 passengers aboard. Lets see if this was really a "mock" exercise or an attempt to Malign Sikh identity. ๐Ÿ”ฝ
A slain passenger was thrown out of plane on tarmac and one million dollars were demanded in exchange of releasing the passengers in Bhopal. It turned out that they were all part of the exercise. But this is how it was portrayed in Media as a Genuine Hijack by "Sikh Extremists"๐Ÿ”ฝ
1) The Hijackers were given four fictitious Sikh Names.
2) Slogans were raised for a separate Sikh State by so called extremists.
3) The government officials admitted to Press Trust of India that using Sikh names and Slogans was delibrately made part of the exercise.
He further stated that it was done to give the exercise a more "Realistic" and "Dangerous" context.
Khushwant Singh said" Any stick is good to beat the Sikhs. Its a vicous thing to do."
But the officials defended the exercise.
The whole ordeal was reported as an actual incident of Hijacking by whole media Until Press Trust of India came forward and told the truth about this "exercise" but by then Damage was done. Read the whole news below.
