The Jathedar of Sri Akal Takht Sahib, Giani Kuldeep Singh Garhgaj, has strongly condemned the ban on the broadcast of the film 'Satluj' in India. The movie is based on the life of human rights activist Shaheed Bhai Jaswant Singh Khalra. The Jathedar termed the ban as a suppression of freedom of speech and unconstitutional. He highlighted that while films on other communities' struggles are allowed, blocking content related to Sikh human rights violations is discriminatory. He urged the government to allow the film's release to reveal the truth about forced disappearances and fake encounters in Punjab during the 1990s. https://www.rozanaspokesman.in/news/punjab/070726/jathedar-of-sri-akal-takht-sahib-condemns-ban-on-sutlej-movie.html
