SFJ using recorded calls to instigate people in Punjab

SFJ using recorded calls to instigate people in Punjab

Bewildered Punjab and Haryana high court lawyers are receiving recorded calls from the controversial New York-based group Sikhs for Justice (SFJ), which was banned by India last year, seeking their opinion about its so-called movement to "free" Punjab from India.
The group was in news last year for it claim that it was working on the controversial "Referendum 2020" campaign as part of its separatist agenda. In the recorded calls, it seems to be instigating listeners against the central government and the Punjab administration using the novel coronavirus pandemic as an excuse.

Referring to the tough action taken by Punjab chief minister Amarinder Singh and Prime Minister Narendra Modi against those violating lockdown norms, the pro-Khalistan group has also accused them of "torturing" youngsters. SFJ also claimed that it is paying Rs 2,000 to Punjab's Covid-19 victims. However, it could not be substantiated.
