Territorial claims of Khalistan

Add under "...The proposed state would consist of land that currently forms.":

Punjab (India), Chandigarh, Haryana, Himachal Pradesh, some parts of Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh. Himalayan range in the north and Thar desert in the south will be make the geographical boundaries of Khalistan.

NOTE: This article stated that "The proposed state would consist of land that currently forms Punjab, India and Punjab, Pakistan", but in fact not a single Khalistani secessionist group claimed Pakistani Punjab, this needs to be corrected, I have given the reference of the map issued by the Khalistani secessionist group Sikhs For Justice and Reference no. 3 is from the website of the Council of Khalistan (Government of Khalistan in Exile during Insurgency in Punjab and also served as a member of UNPO untill 1993)

You can't, since it is [[Wikipedia:Rough guide to extended confirmed protection|extended confirmed protected]. You can suggest edits here on the talk page using an edit request. Please suggest specific changes of text, with supporting citations if it is new information as opposed to something like a typo fix which doesn't need a citation. --Mvqr (talk) 13:16, 13 December 2022 (UTC)

Khalistan's claim on Punjab, Pakistan

Khalistani separatists never claimed Punjab, Pakistan. From the beginning of the separatist movement Khalistani separatists have released only two proposed maps of Khalistan and both maps claims Indian territory only and this is enough to clear that the Khalistan Movement is limited to India only.

File:Proposed Map of the Republic of Khalistan.png

The Proposed map of Khalistan released by Sikhs for Justice (A nonprofit organization which seek self-determination

The Proposed map of Khalistan released by Shiromani Akali Dal (Amritsar) (Political party in Punjab, India support the secession of Punjab from India)

Shubhdeep Sandhu (talk) 06:30, 10 January 2023 (UTC)

The Khalistani movement as it started had already made it clear about their territorial claims.

Now that another map has been proposed, it seems we don't need a map here.

I would also say that the new map is not broadly recognized. Capitals00(talk) 07:40, 10 January 2023 (UTC)

First of all explain me how Khalistan Movement made it clear about their territorial claims? ("With Reference") then i will understand your point of view and we can come to a better conclusion.

Shubhdeep Sandhu(talk) 09:07, 10 January 2023 (UTC)

I don't have to cite thousands of reliable sources which support the standard map. The map you are pushing is proposed by a fringe organization and it won't be added on Wikipedia. Capitals00 (talk) 00:52, 14 January 2023 (UTC)

Come on man! It's just like Pakistan claims Kashmir and i say Pakistan claims whole north india with Delhi its capital coz Pakistan is based on Mughal Empire (for example Pakistan's missiles are named after mughal emperors) is it make any sense?

If you don't give a reliable source or reference then you are obviously not following Wikipedia's Policies and guidelines. You have thousands of reliable sources as you said above, but you only need to give one or two from them.(WP:CS)

SFJ & SAD (A) are two Pro‐Khalistan organizations not fringe organizations, SFJ is registered nonprofit organization in the United States and SAD (A) is a registered political party in India, whose leader Simranjit Singh Mann is a lok sabha member in the Indian Parliament but yes both organizations are fringe organizations for India like CTA for china, ANC for Spain and PLO for Israel, and this shows you are not neutral and pushing only Indian Narrative here which is also against Wikipedia's Neutral Policy.(WP:NPOV)(WP:PG)

My point is simple, When not a single Khalistan Organization claimed Pakistani territory then why should it be written on Wikipedia?

The territorial claims of the Council of Khalistan(Government of Khalistan in Exile and a former member of UNPO) are also limited to India, when we talk about the territorial claims of a proposed state, we use the map issued by the organizations fighting for the establishment of that proposed state for example you can see territorial claims of Tamil Eelam, Catalonia and Tibet etc...

Khalistan Infobox

quite a while ago removed an infobox with info on Khalistan, though I find this wrong.

1:It doesn't exist but we didn't do it for LTTE, right? It did control territory during an insurgency and so did (and does) ISIS, so it de facto did exist.

2: I know that the infobox helped me understand the movement easier. Shouldn't we at least find if more users find the article easier with it?

3: You claim "Khalistan doesn't exist", but the article's title suggests that Khalistan is a movement. A movement is not a country, it doesn't need territory to be what it is. A movement is a group of individuals that follow one main idea. It is like a political party. It will not need territory to operate. 146.196.33.212 (talk) 06:43, 15 April 2023 (UTC)

The article uses the wrong acronym in one instance. It mentions and cites the Immigration and Refugee Board of Canada however it puts the wrong acronym after (IRCC). IRCC stands for Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada which is a federal department separate from the Immigration Refugee Board of Canada. The correct acronym is (IRB). It should be replaced or remove the acronym entirely and it will be fixed. 142.120.140.15 (talk) 10:18, 30 June 2023 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of paragraph

Harmeet Singh, the chief of Khalistan Liberation Force, was murdered at Dera Chahal Gurdwara, near Lahore in Pakistan on 27 January 2020. Harmeet had masterminded the 2016–2017 targeted killings in Punjab as well as many other terror attacks. There have been varying reports on the cause and killer of Harmeet. According to some Indian media Harmeet was killed over an afair while other media outlets say Harmeet was killed over a financial dispute. Others have speculated Harmeet was killed by R&AW or ISI. This theory is favored by most Sikhs. A police spokesperson when asked about Harmeet's fainted ignorance claimed they had no knowledge of such an incident. Harmeet's parents requested his body so they could perform the final rites, but Pakistan did not comply. No FIR was registered by police in Lahore over Harmeet's murder. Harmeet was creamated with only a few attending the creamtion. The NIA failed to provide a death verification report for Harmeet. He would be succeeded by Avtar Singh Khanda.

Most of this paragraph is just the personal life of Harmeet Singh. Why are the funeary rites and theories about his death consequential enough to be included here? Southasianhistorian8 (talk) 15:06, 18 August 2023 (UTC)

Courtesy of @CanadianSingh1469. Please go ahead and delete that is not relevant — DaxServer (t · m · e · c) 16:37, 18 August 2023 (UTC)

Thanks. I deleted the paragraph in its entirety. Do you think the 2016–17 targeted killings in Punjab, India deserves a brief mention on this page? Southasianhistorian8 (talk) 20:18, 18 August 2023 (UTC)

Do you know if the sources talk about those attacks in the context of the whole movement? — DaxServer (t · m · e · c) 07:22, 19 August 2023 (UTC)

Proposed addition of paragraph

I propose the addition of a brief paragraph on the activities and alleged assassination of Hardeep Singh Nijjar. It would seem to fit neatly right at the end of the '1985 to present day' subsection, immediately preceding the 'Militancy' section.

Proposed text:

On 18 June 2023, Hardeep Singh Nijjar was shot dead in the parking lot of a Sikh temple in Surrey, Canada. Nijjar was the head of two pro-Khalistan organisations in Canada, and had been accused by the Indian Government of orchestrating targeted killings in India, for which it unsuccessfully sought his extradition. On 18 September 2023, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau publicly accused the Indian Government of being behind Nijjar's assassination. In response, Trudeau's government expelled an Indian diplomat from the country, and reportedly suspended trade talks. Riposte97 (talk) 01:15, 19 September 2023 (UTC)

Date format

The 2020s sub-section uses MM/DD/YY format. Not only is the inappropriate but is internal inconsistent. Could someone with access change the dates to DD/MM/YY. Thanks. 2003:EB:B747:8500:6471:7EA:F369:D324 (talk) 12:38, 14 July 2023 (UTC)

Calling it "inappropriate" seems like a bit much, but there is certainly a possibility of confusion for folks. MOS:DATEFORMAT specifies that DD/MM/YY also is recommended against. Instead, either YYYY-MM-DD should be used; or, more preferentially, the date should be fully written out with the month spelled out in its entirety. 172.56.152.22 (talk) 17:25, 19 September 2023 (UTC)
