JaLandHar: National Commission for Minority Chair Iqbal Singh Lalpura in a recent post on Facebook claimed that during the 1961 census, which also took regional language, government enumerators would write Hindi in the Hindu column even when they did it mention Punjabi.
Only the day after Minister Punjab Chararjit Singh Channi criticized RSS in the state legislature, Lalpura, at the post on November 12, asking, “who was in the government” when the 1961 census was carried out.
The congress came to power at the time.
Lalpura’s statement came when the Punjab government led by the Congress has been able to ensure the passage of ‘Punjabi and other Bill Agency (amendments) Bill, 2021’ and ‘Punjab (Amendment) Bill 2021’ in the State Legislative Assembly – a step that is seen as a way to reach out Parts demand a promotion of Punjabi.
“A news report said that at that time, RSS Chief Madhavrao Sadashivrao Golwalkar asked Punjabis to mention Punjabi as their mother tongue,” Lalpura wrote.
Lalpura said in the 1960s, even when Punjab had suffered the most during the partition, then all the leadership of the Congress, including the Prime Minister, stepped on his promise to form a state of Punjabi.
He also mentioned that the police entered Darbar Sahib during the agitation of Suba Punjabi.
“RSS is an enemy organization of Punjab,” CM Channi said in the State Assembly on November 11.
Explain RSS as a “non-political social organization”, said Lalpura in posting: “Under the rules of what the allegations are leveled into organizations that are not present in assembly to defend themselves.
Which social organization has been discussed by the legislature? Do not aim to make divisions In the community? If members of the Assembly and their leaders will arrive at a low level of debate and knowledge of the country’s problems, which can save Punjab? Punjab faces multi-organ failure, “he wrote.
He also wrote about the naxalite movement in the 1960s in Punjab.
He said that Naxalit, at that time, would say that rice must be planted in Sarovar (Sacred Pool) Darbar Sahib.
In a clear excavation in Shiromani Akali Dal, he said all the noise about the important issue of Punjab would be silent after power.
Mention Militancy Days, Lalpura, who remain a police officer in Punjab and also served in the intelligence department and as SSP in the state police, said fake meetings occurred during militancy.
