What is actually Khalistan, the private homeland some Sikhs desire?

.WHEN INDIA acquired self-reliance from Britain in 1947, handful of outside the nation thought that a union of such assorted states might hold all together. India has survived– but certainly not without dangers to its own uniformity. One of the most long-lasting has actually been actually the Khalistan action, which seeks to create an individual birthplace for Sikhs.

India’s federal government, which refutes any kind of involvement, has actually implicated Canada of harbouring “terrorists as well as separationists”. Exactly how serious is actually the Khalistan action?
