Khalistani terrorist Pannun threatens to disrupt Pravasi Bharatiya Divas 2025 in Bhubaneswar

Khalistani terrorist Gurpatwant Singh Pannun has issued a threatening mail to disrupt the upcoming Pravasi Bharatiya Divas-2025 scheduled to be held on January 8 in Bhubaneswar. The Khalistani supporter has sent a mail along with a video message to senior journalist Akshay Sahoo threatening to disrupt the mega event which is being organised in Odisha for the first time.

The alleged email from Pannu further intensifies the threats against the annual event which celebrates the contributions of the Indian diaspora. In the video clip, Pannun calls Bhubaneswar a terror city and not a temple city. He calls upon his supporters and followers to disrupt the significant occasion that celebrates non-resident Indians and their achievements, drawing participants from around the world.

He also warned people to stay away from Bhubaneswar airport to the Janata Maidan area.

Calling upon his supporters, the Khalistani terrorist said, “Bhubaneswar has once again proved to be a terror city and not a temple city as it is hosting ‘Pravasi Bharatiya Terror Divas’. Disrupt and nib in the bud India’s raw agencies efforts to rebuild this spy network which was dismantled by the Trudeau and Biden administration after the assassination of Shaheed Nijjar.”

He continued, “They will be working directly with the Indian Consulate officials against the interest of US and Canadian sovereignty, this face of India’s Hindu terror network. This is your opportunity to stay loyal to your host countries where you live.”

“From Bhubaneswar airport to Janata Maidan, stay away, stay safe and stay alert. Pro-Khalistan Sikhs are going to disrupt and nip in the bud the part last effort to rebuild the spy network which is responsible for the violence, cross national abductions in several countries,” he concluded.

This isn’t the first time Pannun has targeted an event in Bhubaneswar, Odisha. He had also issued a threat to disrupt the All India DGsP/IGsP Conference 2024 which was attended by PM Modi and HM Amit Shah.

He had sent a similar mail that read, “Hindu terrorist Modi has turned Bhubaneswar into a terror city. Do not fly to and from Biju Patnaik Airport on December 1. Khalistan Naxals, Maoists, Kashmiri fighters target DGP Terror Conference, Lok Seva Bhawan, raise Khalistani flag, REWARD Rs. 25 Lakh. Pro Khalistan Sikhs are ready to die for freedom of Punjab. Indian Police Chiefs are you willing to sacrifice your life to defend the territorial integrity of India?”

However, there was no disruptions in the mega event that went smoothly for three days.

Worth mentioning, Pannu is known for advocating the Khalistani separatist movement, which calls for a separate Sikh state. His activities and threats are often directed towards disrupting significant Indian events, highlighting ongoing tensions between the separatist ideologies and Indian national unity.

Meanwhile, stringent security arrangements have been put in place to ensure safety of all the attendees at the event.
