New Delhi: 20 May 2016-
National Secretary, BJP Kisan Morcha from Punjab Sukhminderpal Singh Grewal today thanked Hon'ble Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau for offering an official apology for the tragic Komagata Maru incident in which a shipload of Indians were refused entry into Canada more than 100 years ago. Grewal said this gesture showed great political sagacity, statesmanship and a genuine concern for humane values. Grewal was referring to the apology offered at the parliament in Ottawa recently by Justin Trudeau on behalf of Government of Canada for their role in the Komagata Maru incident. BJP Leader also hoped that the Leaders and Governments all over the world would take a leaf out of the Justin Trudeau's book and try to follow the great example set by the Canadian Prime Minister in offering apologies for past sins and crimes to remove distortions in history. Grewal said that history can neither be rewritten nor forgotten. He said but it can certainly be transcended, and this is the way to do it. On the events of 1984 in Punjab are one such instance in history that demands a matching gesture of this kind. Grewal thanked and appreciate the Canadian Prime Minister, Federal Government and the people of Canada for displaying Great vision and a large heartedness. He said that he have always believed that this painful chapter in history will not only continue to hurt sentiments of Indians, Punjabi's and especially the Sikh community but it also stands as an unfair and ill deserved blot on the fair name of your great nation of the country.

Zee Punjabi blackout is violation of Right to Freedom of Speech - Grewal

Jalandhar : 9 March 2009
Zee Punjab Haryana Himachal TV Channel blackout is violation of Right to Freedom of Speech. Punjab BJP Leader Sukhminderpal Singh Grewal warned Sukhbir Badal to restrain from invading “Right to Freedom of Speech and Expression" enshrined in Article 19(1)(a) of Constitution of India and termed Freedom of Press, "a Treasured Privilege”. Grewal stated that Sukhbir Badal have imposed an undeclared Emergency similar to an Internal Emergency declared by Indira Gandhi in 1975. Grewal stated that the modus operandi of Sukhbir Badal is similar to Indira Gandhi, Late Congress tyrant, who suppressed thought process of the editors through her 3 point programme: allocation of Government advertising; shotgun merger of News agencies; and use of fear arousal techniques on Newspaper Publishers, Journalists and Individual Shareholders. Grewal added that Sukhbir Badal is one step ahead of Indira, apart from ensuring huge allocation of Government advertising, forced takeovers and consolidation of Cable TV Networks through “benami companies” viz. Shan-e-Punjab, DIGI Cable and Fastway Cable and misuse of power against stakeholders of media houses who don’t toe to his line, Sukhbir went on to enterprise his own TV Channels such as PTC Group of TV Channels for self embellishment and quck buck. Since, Sukhbir Badal now controls 95% of the Cable TV Networks, thus Punjab Today and Zee Punjabi News Channels were simply blacked out from Cable TV Networks when they tried to air anything unacceptable to “Chotti Indira Gandhi”.

Grewal equated the current situation with June, 1975, when Indira Gandhi led Congress Government declared a State of Emergency and suspended civil liberties, thereafter the Government tightened its controls on the Indian Mass Media, especially on the Newspapers which had reputation of being free and lively. “Leaders learn from others mistakes and don’t do blunders themselves”, advised Grewal. “Sukhbir shouldn’t create an emergency like situation and repeat historic blunder orchestrated by Indira Gandhi during Internal Emergency of 1975”, added Grewal.

Grewal stressed upon the importance of free mass media in a democratic process of nation building and advised the Press to look beyond advertising. Grewal stated that Sh. L.K Advani, Sardar Prakash Singh Badal and other veteran Leaders of SAD BJP alliance have opposed Internal Emergency declared by Indira Gandhi and even spent Jail terms.  Grewal advised Sardar Prakash Singh Badal to intervene and ask Sukhbir to take corrective action else this may result in heavy losses to the alliance in upcoming Lok Sabha Elections as opportunist leaders like Captain Amarinder Singh his adulator Sukhpal Singh Khaira are using the situation as an opportunity to vein false propaganda against SAD BJP alliance.

Grewal demands Judicial inquiry in Gurmeet Singh "Pinky" claims on Punjab Police.

Ludhiana:
National Secretary BJP Kisan Morcha Sukhminderpal Singh Grewal labelled the claims made by Pinky in his various interviews as a blot on Human rights and he called for a fair judicial inquiry into the claims. Grewal said political parties should not use this for there political TRP but they should genuinely try to unite against the hedious crimes which took place during those days. As per the claims made by Pinky in his interviews there are substantial evidence regarding punjab police personnel who are jailed in various jails in punjab. Grewal said that whosoever lost there family members and in some cases whole families were massacred know how it feels to loose someone. Sikhs were killed, Hindus, Sikhs were killed and there were so many cases of policemen being killed so overall whole of punjab suffered during those days . Grewal urged political parties to come together for a common cause, he said it's no point blaming congress and Indira Gandhi for there involvement in the growth of terrorism in Punjab but now everybody should form a common front so that the acts of such inhuman nature don't go unaccounted.
Grewal said role of Punjab police shall never go unnoticed in overcoming terrorism but on hearing the recorded statements of pinky one develops a feeling that it was the constable and head constable ranked personnel who showed great valour and courage and even there bravery and nationalism went un noticed as the perks were collected by there senior officials. Grewal further stated that not every senior police official in those days was corrupt but the ones who were shall not go unpunished.
Grewal further stated the rampant corruption taking place in Punjab Police and individually signalling out Punjab Police Intelligence Wing which pinky claims have mismanaged a fund of INR 20 crores per year which stands out at a staggering about INR 20 crore per year for many years back from Government. Grewal said people of Punjab and India have the right to know where there hard earned tax money is actually going and no one should be given political and beaurocratic immunity if held responsible in this case.
