What is Khalistan movement?

Due to this violent movement in India, many people had to lose their lives. At the same time, many organizations associated with this movement are still active all over the world, which still hold the opinion of separating Punjab from India.

How did this movement start (khalistan movement history)

In the fight to liberate India, the people of the Hindu, Muslim and Sikh communities together faced the British. That’s when the British announced the independence of India. So by that time the unity between Hindus and Muslims had completely ended. Mohammed Jinnah, the leader of the Muslims, proposed to the British to create a separate homeland for himself. At the same time, Hindu leaders also agreed on this proposal. At the same time, the full responsibility of dividing India had come on British India. After which British India divided India into two parts in the year 1947. Out of which one part was given to the Muslims and the other to the Hindus and thus Pakistan got separated from India.

At the same time, when this partition was being done, at that time the people of Sikh community also realized that they too want a homeland of their own. As a result, the Suba movement was launched in the year 1950 under the leadership of Akali Dal. Through this movement, the Akali Dal demanded the creation of a Punjabi majority state (Suba). But the Government of India refused to accept this demand of the Akali Dal. But this movement did not end here. It is said that in the year 1966, the Government of India had agreed to the demand to separate the state of Punjab from India. The government of that time had decided that it would separate the state of Punjab. But Himachal and Haryana will remain a part of India. But the Akalis did not agree with this decision of the government and they demanded that Chandigarh be merged with Punjab. Only they will have the right on the rivers of Punjab and Haryana and Rajasthan will not have any right on these rivers. In the year 1978, ‘Anandpur Sahib Sankalp’ was taken in which the Akalis along with Jagjit Singh Chauhan formulated their demand. And before this, in the year 1971, Gajit Singh Chauhan, a supporter of Khalistan, went to America and gave an advertisement related to Khalistan country in a newspaper there and through this advertisement he tried to collect donations from the people. So that with this money they can strengthen their movement.

At the same time, in the year 1980, he formed the “Khalistan National Council” and made himself its chief. In the same year, he went to London and also announced the formation of Khalistan country. Not only this, it is said that together with Balbir Singh Sandhu, General Secretary of the National Council of Khalistan, he had also issued the postal stamp and currency of Khalistan.

Operation Blue Star in the year 1984

While all these incidents were happening in Punjab. Meanwhile, a leader named Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale also came forward. Who also demanded to create a separate Khalistan country.

On the other hand, Khalistani extremist Bhindranwale along with some of his supporters went to Harmandir Sahib i.e. Golden Temple and camped here and here he collected heavy machine guns and self-loading rifles. Actually Bhindranwale felt that the government would never attack any temple.

And when Indira Gandhi came to know that Khalistani extremists were hiding in the temple. So he executed Operation Blue Star.

This mission was executed on 1 June 1984.
