“Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.” - Dr. Martin Luther King
Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh!
Many Thanks
To all the sangat present at our recent national Kesri Lehar meeting in Coventry we greatly appreciate your attendance and participation. This was an important first step to get ourselves better aligned. We appreciate all the support and constructive feedback and would like to remind us all, that a great statue starts with a big block of stone that gets refined step by step, a masterpiece painting starts with an empty canvas.
Slowly but surely we shall chisel away at the injustices done in India and build on our success, as we have when gathering over 100,000 signatures and having over 140 MPs support our cause.
Let us not get discouraged, but show endurance and walk in the footsteps of our gurus, that showed
great strength, great sacrifice and great courage.

Message from John McDonnell MP on the occasion of the
Vaisakhi "Save a Life Vigil" in Westminster on 6th April 2013 "I send my solidarity greetings to this vigil, organised by Kesri Lehar. We must continue to do all we can to draw people's attention to the threat that lies above the heads of Balwant Singh Rajoana and Professor Devinderpal Singh Bhullar. I pay tribute to all those who have campaigned so effectively under the Kesri Lehar banner over the last year and give this commitment that we will not rest until justice is secured." |

Guide lines for those requesting to address the public at Kesri Lehar's Public gatherings:-
Recommended Inclusions: 1. Speak on behalf of your organisation, addressing and appreciating the United Kingdom's stand on Human Right's, and, the people at large for their support in the campaign for the Abolishment of the Death Penalty in India and it is an opportunity for your organisation to declare support of Kesri Lehar. 2. Confine your speech to the "Human Rights" Mission of Kesri Lehar: § It is - A campaign in defence of basic human rights principles. § To defend and protect minority interest, and, to promote diversity. § Initiated by the Sikhs in Britain but joined in the quest by many other communities in the UK including the Christians, Muslims, Hindus, Jews, many others. § An appeal to the worldwide community for their support in defending basic human values in India. § An appeal to United Nation's for their support. To Strictly Avoid: - 1. Do not make statements of racial or religious incitement. 2. Do not make individual or institutional satire or criticism, unless it is directed towards individuals or institutions that are known perpetrators of Human Rights. 3. Do not attempt to use the forum as a platform to promote any individual self or organisation. 4.

Do not make statements deemed to attack or demoralise rival groups or organisations. The Kesri Lehar Campaign Is to urge the UK Government to press the Indian government to sign and ratify the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court and the UN Convention against Torture and other Cruel, Inhumane or Degrading Treatment or Punishment, which encompasses the death penalty. |
