Summons Issued Against Kamal Nath In Us Court

[SAadmin]

This is great news...!!!. I urge Canadian Sikhs should consult US Sikh Law body in future protest. This is how things should be done. Protest is double edge sword, all these placards/protest can be used to gain sympathy in general public or cause nuisance in regular joe blow citizen daily chores where it starts interruption their life ie- block roads/transit delay in protest against war criminals. But nothing come close to group of lawyers who knows politicians/senators using amnesty reports and evidence and present to the court having them banned.
