I found this... i was shoked....

Sikh orphans given to Christian missionaries?

It has come to light Sikh children who where made orphanes in 1980's handed over to christian Missionaries by Government, etc. This would have ment they converted there faith and there fore another way found to get rid of the Sikh youth loosing there sikhi, sikhi loosing its next generation.

Taken from Tapoban.org

This was done in order to hide evidence of the Nov 1984 carnage.I have heard of

the recent film AMU but did not know that there was a well organized move of the

part of the so-called Sikh leaders to give Sikh orphans to Christian

missionaries.

If I recall correctly there were at least well over four hundered Sikh children

that were brought back from the Calcutta region alone to Punjab and resettled

among some various orphanages and some adopted by sikhs.

Some how these

children landed up with Mother Theresa.Credit goes to mother theresa that she

did counter argued when representations were made to her initially by Sr Mahip

Singh.I believe it was through some Calcutta resident Sikhs investigating the

carnage in Bengal state that this issue came to light.They visited mother

theresa, who confirmed many sikh children had arrived there.She also assured

Sikhs that until they were able to take care she will look after them.The Sikhs

offered her all the support to bring them as Sikhs and at once contatced the

Calcutta Sikh leaders at Gurduara Barri Sikh sangat.

The Calcutta Sikh

leaders along with Capt Bhag Singh ji, I beleive, through Dr Mahip Singh

informed Bhagat Puran Singh ji, who along with Mahip Singh ji at once offered

ardasa and left shortly after for Calcutta to bring the children back to punjab

and his care.Later some of these children were joined with their parents or

relatives who had survived and were located.But others remained at the

pingalwara, and among some other orphanages within Punjab.

It was very

clearly pointed out in the punjabi press and aslo some English media that it was

due to a conspiracy of some of the indian government agents that these Sikh

children were transported to a christian charity.In other words it was a

deliberate act to loose the community its youth.

But Khalsa Ji, the

saddest part is all our organisations are busy chassing phantoms, NOBOSDY ever

had the single iota of sense to say let us organise our own study into these

massacres -state by state, town by town,and street by street, and under a

category of other( eg those travelling on trains, buses , cars or etc) and

establish what exactly happened, who died where and how,who are the survivors

and how many children are involved and now accounted for.

Instead we

are busy chasing phantoms, argung over maryada, that has been set 50 years ago

and still wonder if we are sikhs or jats, tarkhaans or kummiars!

I am

ashamed some times to be a sikh , when i think back that we could have

abandonned countless other children because our Sikh leaders in the Punjab found

politics more appealing.

I am NOT ashamed to say, when I heard this

in 1984 december, I could not eat for days , and spent days liasing with

Christian organisations in UK to ensure the Sikh children were brought up as

sikhs, and returned back to the Panth as soon as arrangements were completed by

Dr Mahip Singh Ji.

Then I had a call that a problem arose regards their

transport back to Punjab.Unashamedly I will say, I paid for the journies of 489

individuals.The sangat at calcutta paid for their clothes and food .Dr Mahip

singh ji arranged for two doctors and three nurses to accompany them back,at his

expense and got an army escort all the way back to the Punjab.

NO Sikh

organisation in UK was interested as they were busy shouting Khalistan or trying

to have photo opportunities with visiting Indian leaders.

Today my tears

still roll out when I think of those bad days and the children.

But it

is very very sad that our sikh leaders are still busy shouting about a phnatom

khalistanm fighting over maryada or something irrelevant.But NOT ONE CARE about

the children.

Jis kaum ne apne bache'an de kal di na sochi,

usne

kisse hor di kal da ki apne pale pana hai/

Singho, this is the truth

only in one incident.

I have heard about this before.

It is rather sad that we the Sikh quam failed these children. Enough money was raised during the torubled years but hardly any of it was used to help these innocent victims.

I remember going to the Harimandir Sahib in the 1990s and seeing Sikh kids being forced to basically beg. They were given banners (I think they were children of Shaheed) and made to sit and beg. Later the Jathedar of the Akal Takht Bhai Sahib Ranjit Singh Ji put a stop to this. The sad thing was the people running the orphanage for the kids had a lot of money being sent to them from overseas but for some reason rather than sending the kids to school they were using the kids to make more money.

There are other incidents of the overseas sangat sending gifts to these children and those running the orphanages not passing the gifts on. Peopel used these kids to make a quick buck.
