Self-arrested! Why did Amritpal do this
Granthi Singh Sahib Giani Jasbir Singh Rode of Rodewala Gurudwara explained the whole incident. Talking to the media, he told that ‘the fact is that he (Amritpal) gave the arrest of his own free will. Arrested at exactly 7 o’clock. Arrested at the birthplace of Saint Baba Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale of Gurdwara Sant Khalsa. The place where Amritpal was arrested is built in the memory of Gurudwara Bhindranwale. It was here last year that Amritpal took charge of Waris Punjab De with ‘Dastarbandi’. On September 29, 2022, Amritpal Singh announced from here that Sikhs are still slaves. After that day Amritpal came here again and again.
The stain of being a ‘fugitive’ was to be erased…
Amritpal Singh was absconding since March 18, 2023. The Punjab Police searched from Delhi to Himachal in search of him. Amritpal was caught on CCTV in Delhi wearing a jeans-jacket. Meanwhile, the National Security Act (NSA) was imposed against him. The video also went viral in which Amritpal, shaken by the action of the Punjab Police, was saying ‘pulse aa gayi pulse’. In social media, he was called a ‘fugitive’.
Amritpal, who lives in Khalistani arrogance, had to prove in front of the community that he is not a fugitive. A video of him doing company inside the gurudwara has surfaced. In this also he is talking in the style of Bhindranwale. Amritpal was probably also afraid of security. When Amritpal’s picture came in the custody in the morning, he had made a look just like Bhindranwale. As if claiming himself to be the successor of Bhindranwale!
Radical campaign in Punjab after returning from Dubai
Amritpal, the chief of Waris Punjab De, is originally a resident of village Jallukheda in Amritsar district. He had returned from Dubai last year after nearly ten years. Here he introduced himself as a follower of Jarnail Singh Bhindranwala. Amritpal emerged as the head of the Waris Punjab De organization within a few months. Amritpal roamed in many districts of Punjab and started connecting the youth with him and started propagating radical ideology.
