Applauding the Modi Government for being there for Sikhs and for implementing several demands from the Sikh Community in the past nine years, Jassee Singh also said that due to these actions of the Prime Minister, Khalistan movement has fizzled out in the USA. “In all of the USA, there are no more than a handful of Khalistanis who give the entire large Sikh community a bad name,” Singh was quoted as saying in a media note issued after the meeting.
