Terrorist Pannun threatens Ayodhya Ram Mandir

Khalistani terrorist Gurpatwant Singh Pannun on Monday issued threats targeting Hindu temples, including the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya. In a video released by the banned Sikhs for Justice (SFJ) outfit, Pannun, currently staying in the United States, and Canada, warned of an attack on November 16 and 17. The video, reportedly recorded in Brampton, Canada, is aimed at inciting violence against Hindu places of worship.

In his statement, Pannun said, “We will shake the foundations of Ayodhya, birthplace of the violent Hindutva ideology”, a direct threat to one of India’s most sacred sites. The video shows images of Prime Minister Narendra Modi praying in the Ram Temple during its Pranpratishta in January this year. Pannun has also warned Indians in Canada to stay away from Khalistani attacks on Hindu temples.

Last month, Pannun cautioned passengers against flying on Air India flights between November 1 and 19. Pannun claimed the period coincided with what he called the 40th anniversary of the 1984 “Sikh genocide”.

Pannun has also called for violence against Indian diplomats, indicating a broader attempt to provoke unrest and tension within Indian and expatriate communities.

Pannun’s SFJ has been involved in various anti-India activities, aiming to promote the idea of a separate Sikh state. Pannu has issued several incendiary statements aimed at destabilising communal harmony.

Pannun was designated as a terrorist under the Unlawful Activities Prevention Act (UAPA) in July 2020. The government of India has also issued multiple warrants for his arrest. However, he continues to function from the United States and Canada.
