About 1,000 Sikhs of Ahmedabad on Sunday brought out a rally, protesting delay in justice to victims of Anti-Sikh riots of 1984. They were led by journalist-turned-social activist, Jarnail Singh, who in the past had made national headlines for hurling a shoe at Home Minister P Chidambaram during a press conference in New Delhi.

On 14 February, S jarnail Singh Ji, thejournalist who spread awareness about 1984 Sikh Riots world wide, addressed the media at Gurudwara Sri Guru Singh Sabha in Afzalgunj Hyderabad.

Reporter Jarnail Singh is now himself the news after a politician ducked his question – and then his flying sneaker

When I hurled a shoe, I had no doubt that some kind of action would be taken against me.

Journalist Jarnail Singh has said that it was 'laughable' that politicians were linking him with Akali Dal, instead of addressing the issue of justice to the 1984 victims.

When the shoe flew towards Indian Home Minister Palaniappan Chidambaram's face, the thrower's face was turned away from the cameras but that gait had to belong to my friend, Sardar Jarnail Singh.

Said Jathedar Akal Takht Gyani Gurbachan Singh: “I feel Jarnail was not wrong, since what he did was the out come of injured sentiments. Here I would make it clear that the Sikh community would always stand with him.”
