London, UK - The World Muslim-Sikh Federation has launched a campaign against the Hindu fundamentalist Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), and in a petition submitted to Prime Minister Gordon Brown, urged him to ban RSS activities in Britain.
According to The Nation, close to 1598 people have signed the petition, whereas 10,000 signatures are needed to get the government to act favourably.
The campaign was launched on July 12, and the deadline for submission of the petition with required signatures to the government is July 12, 2008.
Manmohan Singh Khalsa, Chairman, World Muslim-Sikh Federation, has appealed to Hindus, Muslims, Sikhs Christians Jews and all other peace-loving communities to sign the petition so the activities of this racist organisation in the UK could be banned.
Talking to The Nation, Khalsa said: "Our campaign is aimed at making the government and UK people realise that the RSS is a racist and a prejudiced organisation, and its existence in a democratic country like Britain is not justified. "
"It is a matter of our great satisfaction that the official website of 10-Downing Street has also given space for this petition", he added.
According to him, the federation has taken the measure in the light of the increased activities of the RSS in the UK in raising funds, political backing and spreading of the hate ideology. The petition urges PM Brown to ban the group and freeze its assets and funding.
The petition states that:
* RSS is a Hindu extremist organisation which believes that only Hindus should reside within India.
* The organisation wish to create a Hindu Super State of Hindutva, Hindu, Hindi and Hindustan. There is no place for minorities.
* The organisation had a major role in the genocide of Muslims in Gujarat. One of the main RSS leaders, Narendra Modi, was banned from entering the USA.
* RSS have actively been trying to distort the Sikh history by modifying the history and books. They claim all who reside in India are part of the Hindu 'Family'.
* RSS takes its inspiration from Hitler and his Nazi party's pure race ideology.
* RSS also had a hand in the Sikh genocide of 1984 in India and it actively supported the killings, rapes, looting and attacking of Sikhs.
The federation has said that in order to uproot the RSS, their funding has to be banned and assets frozen within the UK.
According to the Federation, the petition will remain open for signatures from July 12, 2007 to July 12, 2008. The total number of signatures required to get the RSS banned is 10,000.

Yes SIKHS participated in the destruction of Babri Majid. Just be in realistic and not in the alice in wonderland. Look upon the real and original vedeo - you can see thousands and thousands of sikhs on that very day and that very moment who was breaking the Majid.

Opinions are fine. but personal attacks against other members are not. Keep this on topic everybody.

I wonder if it's opened to British Commonwealth citizens too.... if it is... I could sign it.
Thanks - I's not an issue of Sikh, Muslim or Hindu here, it's about doing what is right and not segregating ourselves over trivial issues. (like some people are doing) :thankyou:
SL - The Dalits are sadly the ''untouchables'' which isn't right. No caste system should be in place (yes sadly we have it too)

Thats why the dalits are being harrased by the hindus and not to the sikhs. One thing is clear and interesting that 15 % hindus in India are saying the rest 50 % as hindus ( here 50% are dalits ) though the 50 % dalits ( www.dalitvoice.org ) are saying that they are not hindus. This problem " Who are Hindus and what is their percentages ? " should be dicussed in public and there should be a referendum in India on this issue.
sikhs do not consider themselves hindus, regardless of what the gov't says and i don't either.
i read a while back that the hindutva folks are going around trying to convince the adivasis that they are really hindus and that their gods are actually hindu gods.
as far as i know, the dalits are hindus too, unless they've converted, as many have, to another religion. the hindus are trying to establish laws against conversion so that the dalits can not opt out of the caste system by leaving hinduism. they may have even succeeded in some states.

You would say the same things if somebody went around saying that Muslims are Christians. You keep telling false things about his religion and he will get angry...

Again I am saying Sikhs and hindus are same and are from the same tree only the branch is different.
The Hindus says that Sikhs have being made to protect the Brahmins idea from the Muslim rulers of India.
The Hindus says that from each family of the caste barden Hindu society - the elder son from a Khastriya family should fight against the Muslims ruler in india and thats why the sikhs came into being.
The Hindus says that a sikhs can save their hair only after killing a Muslim.
Now a days sikhs we can see clean shaven, may be their ideology is not fitted with the present day society. How can you kill a Muslim now a days to clean shave your hair ?????

My Lord, where have you been hearing this false information? Man you really need to get out in the real world.
BTW - Sikhs are killing Muslims all over the joint, just so we can 'clean shave our hair' WHATEVER that means!
