Recently I came across this sensational news article published in "Khalsa Fatehnama" magazine.
I am putting a short story here:
Pind Baraich is very close to one of Rada Swami deras. Dera guys wanted to expand there Dera so they asked villagers to sell their land to them. Most of the villagers were not ready to leave their ancestoral homes.
Dera guys starts using other tactis to evacuate the village:
1) Village transformer has been blown and there is no electricity in village for more than one year. Village homes and Gurdwara uses Candles to do their daily chores.
After appealing again and again to various authorities, villagers have been asked to talk with Rada Swami Dera Secretary.
2) Dera gundas often comes to village, frighten some lonely members of families. There have been incidents of violence between Dera and Villagers.
3) The road to the village is digged and is full of ditched. The road is in worse condition for transportation.
4) Some families left the village, others are fighting bravely. Dera guys have digged 30-30 feet ditches by the side of houses and there is danger of house walls falling down.
5) Dera Secretary openly boasts of his political power and claims Badal is with them. He also claims that even congress will not try to mess with their cult.
Some journalists (from tribune) went there to cover their story. They were man-handled by Dera sponsored gundas. A report was published once in Tribune, nothing after that.
This time, a team from Fatehnama went there, with full preparation to cover the story. They took pictures of village and interviews villagers and covered the story.
Only one "Kissan Jathebandi" is somewhat supportng the villagers. None of the religious or social organisation has come in open to support them
If it is all true, then it's a big nexus and it will slowly engulf many villages in many areas.
Can we do something on it?
