New Delhi: Khalistan terrorist Gurpatwant Pannun was spotted during the Presidential inauguration of Donald Trump in Washington DC on Monday. He also apparently raised extremist slogans praising ‘Khalistan’. A video of Pannun has also gone viral on social media.
In the video, Pannun is seen raising ‘Khalistan Zindabad’ slogans as Donald Trump stood on the stage with his wife Melania inside Capital rotunda for his swearing-in ceremony.
Incident happened at The Liberty Ball
While the rest of the crowd at the event chanted ‘USA, USA’, Pannun who was apparently self recording the event, appeared before the camera and chanted pro-Khakistan slogans. The incident took place at The Liberty Ball during the inauguration ceremony.
Pannun a designated terrorist in India
Gurpatwant Singh Pannun has been designated as a terrorist in India. In September 2024, the National Investigation Agency (NIA) conducted raids at several locations in Punjab in connection with terror-conspiracy involving Pannun and the Sikhs For Justice (SFJ), a proscribed organisation associated with him.
Pannun was designated as a terrorist in India in July 2020. He has been residing in the US for several years. He has made several anti-India speeches while being abroad and urged Punjab youth to rise up against India.
