Gurpatwant Singh Pannun, a banned Sikh separatist leader, sparked controversy by attending the US President's inauguration.

In a chilling video that has gone viral, Gurpatwant Singh Pannun, the US-based leader of the pro-Khalistani group Sikhs for Justice (SFJ), has issued a direct threat to disrupt the Mahakumbh Mela 2025.

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau attended a Khalsa Day celebration in Toronto where pro-Khalistan slogans were raised, despite ongoing concerns expressed by India over separatist activities. Trudeau, accompanied by other political leaders, addressed the event and emphasized Canada's commitment to protecting Sikh rights.
