He termed it a blatant violation of international laws, religious freedom, and human rights.
President of Lahore Press Club Arshad Ansari, along with prominent Sikh figures including Sardar Bishan Singh, Stwant Kaur, Sardar Jaskaran Singh, and Kalyan Singh Kalyan, were also present at the occasion.
Sardar Ramesh Singh Arora stated that India is deliberately targeting Mosques, religious sites, and minorities as part of a broader conspiracy to tarnish Pakistan’s peaceful image on the global stage. He said that the incident staged in Pahalgam was a fabricated and pre-planned drama aimed at misleading the international community through false allegations against Pakistan. He emphasized that Pakistan’s relationship with the Sikh community is deeply rooted in sincerity, affection, and spiritual connection. During the recent Baisakhi festival, Sikh pilgrims from across the world praised Pakistan’s hospitality, love, and religious tolerance.
He added that India is attempting to sow hatred between Muslim and Sikh communities and ignite a psychological war against Pakistan. He categorically rejected India’s baseless claims regarding attacks on Amritsar or the Golden Temple, calling them entirely false and fabricated. He reiterated that Pakistan can never contemplate any action that could hurt the sentiments of its Sikh brothers and sisters.
Sardar Ramesh Singh Arora reaffirmed that religious minorities in Pakistan enjoy full religious freedom, and the state offers equal respect and protection to all faiths and communities.
He urged the United Nations and international human rights organizations to take immediate notice of India’s aggression and its hate-fueled actions against minorities.
President Lahore Press Club Arshad Ansari criticized the Indian media for spreading venom and false propaganda, while reaffirming that the Pakistani media stands united with the nation and its armed forces. He further added that Lahore Press Club remains open and supportive to all religious minorities, especially the Sikh community.
Sikh leaders present at the press conference declared that Pakistan is a peace-loving country committed to protecting its sovereignty, minority rights, and interfaith harmony. They pledged full support to Pakistan’s armed forces and stated that any Indian aggression would be met with a resolute and fitting response.
