Appeal to Sikh Youth Worldwide | Implement Amritsar Declaration

Sikhs worldwide : Now a days a burning issue in Sikh intellectuals is of the "Amritsar declaration" which has recently come into limelight after a special article written by senior journalist Karamjit Singh and published in various news papers , magazines and also available on net. It may be remembered that Sardar Karamjit Singh was part of the drafting committee of the 'Amritsar declaration'.

Amritsar declaration was passed by Shri Akal Takht Sahib which is the supreme power among the Sikhs worldwide on 1st May 1994 but never implemented. For better understanding of our readers we are attaching the English and Punjabi version of the same. This was also signed by various Sikh leaders.

In this set of articles displayed below written by Sardar Karamjit Singh , he introduces the basic meaning of confederation and the Amritsar declaration. He has also appealed to the youth to come forward for suggestions to implement the same. He also listed some people and institutions who must be answerable to the Sikhs for the implementation. He appeals to the youth to take this declaration as a challenge and pressurize Sikh leaders to take steps for the implement this historic document.

The Akali leadership met at Sri Akal Takht Sahib on May 1, 1994 and resolved its political goal in form of this declaration for the only Sikh party-Shiromani Akali Dal.

The Shiromani Akali Dal reiterates its commitment to work within democratic parameters and renew its struggle for the creation of a separatr region for the Sikhs where they as the avan-garde of Punjabi national culture, based on the holy Guru Granth Sahib, can enjoy the glow of freedom. The envisaged region, promised by the Indian National Congress before partition (of India in 1947) but never created, will fulfill not only the aspirations of the Sikh nation and Punjabis, but also help the minorities in it realize their potential.

At this juncture of history, when the entire South East Asia is turmoil and Western nations are also looking for a stable value system and a new model for reorganizing their cultures, a region based on Sri Guru Granth Sahib's ideas of cosmic harmony, dialogue, poetry and non-exploitative politics free from negative hegemonic power to subordinate, will serve as a centre of light to other cultures.

The Sikh ethos, translated into distinct religious, economic, political and social institutions of this region, apart from incarnating the original consciousness of people, will give them an opportunity, denied in recent past, to reveal their best and make a vital contribution to world culture.

The Shiromani Akali Dal is of the view that Hindustan (India) is a sub-continent of diverse national cultures, each with its heritage and mainstream. The sub-continent needs to be reorganized with a confederal structure so that each culture could flower up according to its genius and add a unique fragrance to the garden of world cultures. If such a confederal reorganization is not accepted by the Hindustani (Indian) rulers(Government of India), The Shiromani Akali Dal will have no other option than to demand and struggle for an independent and sovereign Sikh State.
