Sikh Leader Pannun Criticizes Modi’s Hindutva Promotion in US

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s recent visit to the United States has drawn criticism from Sikh leaders, particularly for his promotion of the Hindutva ideology. Gurpatwant Singh Pannun, a prominent Sikh leader, voiced his concerns following Modi’s speech in New York.

Pannun alleged that the event’s organizers and funders were supporters of Modi’s Hindutva ideology. He advised Modi to “take his Indian-American supporters back to India,” suggesting that Hindutva adherents among Indo-Americans were not loyal to the US Constitution and should return to their “beloved motherland.”

The Sikh leader also pointed out that while Modi currently enjoys immunity as Prime Minister, this protection is not permanent. He implied that legal action against Modi might be possible in the future.

This criticism comes against a backdrop of long-standing tensions between the Indian government and Sikh communities. Pannun referenced historical grievances, including unfulfilled promises of Khalistan at the time of India’s independence and incidents like the Golden Temple tragedy.

The controversy highlights ongoing debates about religious harmony, secularism, and democracy in India, with some arguing that the Hindutva ideology is undermining these principles. It also reflects the complex dynamics of diaspora politics and the global reach of India’s domestic issues.
