Habitual Fake News maker. Madhu Kishwar did it again
CAA के विरोध मुसलमान पगङी पहनकर कर रहें हैं
जिससे लगे कि सिक्ख मुसलमानों के साथ जुड़ गए हैं। सावधान रहें। बेईमानी तो इन #papistanis की रग रग में घुस गई है। pic.twitter.com/YaTdoKx4DJ— MadhuPurnima Kishwar (@madhukishwar) February 10, 2020
The video shows cops taking off turban forcefully from head of a bearded thin man who is taken away with them.

“All India Sikh Students Federation (AISSF) has demanded today the resignation from Parkash Singh Badal over the disturbing incident in Mohali, state of Punjab ruled by Akali Dal (Badal), when a young Sikh man’s turban was forcibly removed in broad day light by a police officer on the orders of another senior officer of Punjab Police.
“This is an insult to the Sikh Gurus and the whole of the Sikh community. It is a gross violation of a Sikh’s human rights and the simple requirement for the respect of one’s right to a unfettered religious, family and private life”, said Surjit Singh, chairperson of Sikh Rights, a UK Sikh Human Rights group.
According to Karnail Singh Peermohammad, President AISSF, Mohali incident proves that SAD (Badal and his political associates) have not only failed to protect the dignity of Sikh articles of faith but they are also engaged in intentional desecration of Sikh turban.”
