Under the aegis of the Khalsa Action Committee- a conglomerate of various religious and political organizations of Punjab, the Dal Khalsa has resolved to observe complete strike on Nov 3 to mark the 25th year of Nov 1984 anti-Sikh carnage.

The objective of the shutdown call is to register protest against the genocide engineered by Congress, to express anguish against the denial of justice to aggrieved Sikhs besides paying tributes to those who have been killed in a systematic and planned manner in the country’s capital that housed Parliament, Presidential Place and Foreign Missions.

Leaving aside essential and emergency services including medical services rest everything will remain closed.

There goes a saying that whenever injustice goes unpunished, crime is rewarded, the terrible beast of communalism is revived in more horrific ways. In order to give verdict against the politics of genocide let's shutdown Punjab on Nov 3.

We appeal to people of all religions, race and creed to join the Bandh and support it for the larger humanitarian cause of justice for those innocents who were killed in the communal carnage aimed at obliterating Sikhism and teaching a lesson to the Sikhs.


The Damdami Taksal, Akand Kirtani Jatha, DSGMC, Shiormani Akali Dal (Panch Pardani), Sikh Students Federation, Akal Federation, Chief Khalsa Deevan and many other Panthic groups have endorsed the call for Punjab Bandh.
