Ludhiana 29 January 2014 -

National BJP Leader Sukhminderpal Singh Grewal called upon the Sikh community to boycott the Congress party and it's leadership. In a press statement here today, just a day after Congress party's National Vice President Rahul Gandhi admitted that some party leaders could be involved in the 1984 anti-Sikh riots.

Grewal condemning Rahul Gandhi for not bothering to tender an apology for the killing of hundreds of Sikhs in the 1984 riots, Grewal said his self-admission of the barbaric crimes of Congressmen in anti-Sikh genocide should be suo moto taken notice of by the courts to take action against such Congress party leaders. Grewal said our party would examine the possibility of legal course of action against the Congress party in view of the brazen admission by Rahul Gandhi in an interview on Times Now channel telecast Monday.

It is well known that thousands of Sikhs were killed in various parts of India especially in Delhi and in whole country in November 1984 in the aftermath of the assassination of then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi by her two Sikh bodyguards. Grewal said that Rahul Gandhi has added insult to the injured sentiments of the Sikh community. He said that it is condemnable that he did not even bother to tender an apology to the community for the genocide. Grewal questioned if the Congress party Government was aware of the involvement of Congressmen in the 1984 riots. He said that why it had not bothered to put them behind the bars. He said that ridiculing Rahul Gandhi for the comment that guilty Congress leaders would be punished. Grewal said that failure to punish the guilty of the 1984 massacre and rewarding killers with high offices shows the real side of the Congress party and it's leadership.
