Re: BABA MANOCHAHAL'S WARNING TO RAGI DARSHAN SINGH  http://www.panthic.org/articles/


OK - So far so good! This only raises some questions for my part!

I have edited my questions in response to the comments of roab1 ji that follow.


1. Why can BABA MANOCHAHAL not simply pick up the phone and have a man-to-man discussion with Professor Darshan Singh, making a honest attempt to iron out differences and clear misunderstandings regarding Khalistan? (This question was answered below by roab1 ji who reports that Baba Manochahal is dead. However, the premise of this question still counts in my view because attempts a dialog rather than bombastic name-calling would be more effective if panthic unity is taken seriously.)


2. If he, BABA MANOCHAHAL, cannot do this, why not?  Why issue proclamations without first trying to find common ground for reconciliation of views? Is he running for election?

(Answered by roab1 ji)


3. It seems that BABA MANOCHAHAL may have misunderstood Professor's position. Apparently he did not connect, because decades ago Professor Darshan Singh was pro-Khalistan. After all Dal Khalsa has no issue with the Professor.


 4. I clicked on a link to a full text article and saw a Singh with a gun holster where his kirpan should be, and he seemed to be twirling a gun. What's up with that? This question still needs to be addressed if we are talking about the well-being of the panth today, and not decades ago. He should be wearing a kirpan for what that represents. Why then is a December 2009 news article in a "panthic" media outlet promoting belligerence? 


P/S I had to edit the thread title as ALL CAPS and websites are thread punctuation violations. If you ever notice threads using all caps which I have missed, do not hesitate to point them out so I can address them properly. Thanks, Narayanjot Kaur
