Prior to the G20 summit in Delhi, controversial pro-Khalistani graffiti appeared at more than five metro stations in the national capital on Sunday. The phrases ‘Delhi Banega Khalistan’ and ‘Khalistan SFJ Referendum Zindabad’ were inscribed on walls using black ink. As per statements from the Delhi Police, activists affiliated with the banned group Sikhs for Justice (SFJ) were present at multiple metro stations. They wrote pro-Khalistan slogans, including ‘Delhi Banega Khalistan’ and ‘Khalistan Referendum Zindabad’, using black spray paint on the walls of metro stations like Punjabi Bagh, Shivaji Park, Madipur, Paschim Vihar, Udyog Nagar, Maharaja Surajmal Stadium, and Nangloi. These metro stations are located in the western part of Delhi. The Delhi Police’s Special Cell has become actively engaged in the situation and has been positioned at various locations. CCTV footage is currently under examination to identify the suspects and expedite their arrest. Furthermore, An official FIR has been lodged against unidentified individuals under the legal provisions of sections 153B and 505 of the Indian Penal Code, along with Section 3 of the Defacement Act. Meanwhile, a purported video by the banned outfit ‘Sikhs for Justice’ surfaced on social media. Let me show you the video and what Gurpatwant Singh has to say. In the video, the outfit’s leader, Gurpatwant Singh Pannun, can be heard saying, The battle of G20 Pragati Maidan has started today… (Prime Minister) Modi and India are targets,” he said in the clip. The organisation said their members went to four to five Metro stations and sent a message to G20 nations with the graffiti. The Deputy Commissioner of Police (metro) has confirmed the removal of all graffiti from the walls of the metro stations. In anticipation of the G20 summit, the Delhi Police are closely monitoring social media platforms to curb the propagation of rumors and provocative content. Additionally, they are striving to identify potential criminal elements and enhance security measures at shopping malls, markets, and places of worship across the city. For the purpose of preventing unauthorized entry, all entry points into the national capital will be sealed. However, regular vehicular and public movement will be permitted, according to the statement from the Delhi Police. This incident marks the second instance this year in which Delhi has witnessed the emergence of pro-Khalistan slogans. On January 19, prior to Republic Day, graffiti with perceived “”anti-national”” and “”Khalistan-related”” connotations appeared on walls across various areas of west Delhi, including Vikaspuri, Janakpuri, Paschim Vihar, and Peeragarhi. Slogans like “”Khalistan Zindabad ” and “”Referendum 2020″” were painted on the walls. The Special Cell of the Delhi Police arrested two individuals in connection with these occurrences.
