Trump Campaign Flyer mis-identifying Sikh as Muslim- a blessing in disguise, says Khalsa

INDIANAPOLIS : Let us spread the message of equality, generosity and inclusiveness. Let us embrace fellow beings.. Almighty bliss!!! These words were by Sikhs Political Action Committee chairman Gurinder Singh Khalsa while thanking everyone who attended SikhsPAC’s Townhall and Fundraising meeting in India Palace here on Sunday night.He also specially thanked Indiana Attorney General candidate Curtis Hill and Superintendent of Public Instruction Glenda Ritz for meeting with members of the Sikh community. Amanjodh Singh Chahal came from California to attend and learn more about Sikhs PAC.
“By saying let you know loud and clear someone is ignorant we are judging the same way they are doing. We do not want to be judged by our appearance and we judged them that they are ignorant or some other words. It means we are judging them. We are no different from them,” said Gurinder Singh Khalsa.
He said that “I am an American Sikh first. I am American by choice. Faith is my personal matter.”
It was his reaction the way his photo appeared on the Donald Trump Campaign Flyer mis-identifying him as Muslim. One TV channel described it “Man caught in Political Spin.”On Facebook, Gurunder Singh Khalsa, a product of Minerva Academy of Kharar, Punjab, wrote “Shocking for me… Trump’s campaign is showing my picture as Muslim and supporting Trump. I am a Sikh and I do not support Trump, who is a candidate for President of the USA. Trump Campaign is using my picture without having my permission ever. I am not against Muslims but this is disturbing. That is why we started Sikhs PAC to overcome the confusion of Sikhs and Muslims. Since 9/11 Sikhs have been the most targeted community for sectarian violence and hate crime.”
