Pakistan's Official Video For The Inauguration Of Kartarpur Corridor Has Bhindranwale, Other Khalistani Separatists, Capt Slams Move

Darpan News Desk IANS, 06 Nov, 2019 08:41 PM

    Capt Amarinder Singh on Wednesday stuck to his stand that India needed to be cautious of the hidden agenda of the Pakistan Army.


    Referring to the official song released by the Pakistan government, welcoming Sikh pilgrims, which have posters of Sikh separatist leaders like Jarnail Singh Bhinderanwale and Amrik Singh Khalsa, besides Maj Gen Shabeg Singh, in the background, the Chief Minister said: “On one hand Pakistan shows love and on the other they do this. This is very inappropriate.”


    A video song, which was on Wednesday released by Pakistan government prior to the opening of the Kartarpur corridor, has run into a controversy as it showed Khalistani separatist Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale amongst other leaders.



    The video song had been released by Pakistan's Ministry of Information & Broadcasting on November 4.


    The video also shows posters featuring photographs of Khalistani separatist leaders Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale, Maj Gen Shabeg Singh and Amrik Singh Khalsa against the backdrop of Sikh pilgrims.



    Cricketer-turned-politician Navjot Singh Sidhu is also seen in the opening frames of the video in which he is seated in a function. In alternate frames in the sequence, Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan is seen addressing a gathering hailing the importance of the corridor for Sikh pilgrims.

    Earlier, Sidhu had received an invitation from Pakistan for attending the opening ceremony of the Kartarpur corridor. Sidhu had run into a controversy soon thereafter too when hoardings featuring him along with Imran Khan were propped up in Chandigarh calling the duo as the ones responsible for the fructification of the road project.
