Sikh News It’s Official, Bhindranwale Is Dead (Deccan Herald)

Sikh seminary Damdami Taksal which has assiduously endeavoured to keep alive the legacy of Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale — the dreaded militant ideologue who inspired a wave of militancy in Punjab in the 1980s — has finally declared him a martyr.

lol, you act like its biased because it said "militancy".


Ok, let me ask you...did Bhindranwale not lead waves of Sikhs to rise up?

Did these Sikhs that he lead not have Ak47s strapped to them? Were they not actively fighting against the government (whether their cause is just or not, the article never states or implies)?

They were militants because they took up arms against the government. Bhindranwale led them. He led waves of militants. Its as simple as that. Whether their cause was just, the article never even dwells into.

Stop being so easily offended. It's history, let's keep it accurate.

Militancy doesnt mean terrorism.
