Gurpatwant Singh Pannun, general counsel of the pro-Khalistan group Sikhs for Justice (SFJ), demanded the creation of “Trumpland” for Christians in India after attacks by Hindu extremists on Christians on Christmas Day, reported 24NewsHD TV channel on Saturday.
In a video statement, Pannun appealed to President Donald Trump to take notice of what he described as growing threats to India’s Christian community, warning of cultural, physical, and political dangers faced by religious minorities. He said only strong international pressure could protect Christians in India.
Pannun also announced SFJ’s proposal for a separate Christian homeland, dubbed “Trumpland,” to be carved out of northeastern India.
He said, “President Donald Trump is the only world leader who has the courage, authority, and resources to intervene in this situation.”
Sikh for Justice is holding a referendum around the world to declare the fascist Modi government as illegal.
Sikhs for Justice demanded US administration to support their movement.
He said the proposed corridor would include Nagaland, Mizoram, Meghalaya, Manipur, Tripura, and Assam, which he described as a contiguous Christian-majority region that could serve as a refuge for persecuted Christians.
SFJ said it had released a map of the proposed state and framed the plan as part of its broader advocacy for self-determination movements, including its campaign for a Sikh referendum on Khalistan.
He said that in Modi's India, preaching the Bible is a crime, churches are being set on fire, Christian settlements are being attacked, while people are being displaced and frightened.
India has seen a steady rise in reported attacks on Christians in recent years, including assaults on worshippers, vandalism of churches, disruptions of Christmas services, and allegations of forced conversions used to justify arrests.
Garuptunat Singh Pannu also referred to the statement of the RSS chief in which Mohan Bhagwat had declared India a Hindu state.
Rights groups say such incidents often spike around major Christian holidays and have raised concerns about shrinking space for religious freedom under Hindu nationalist policies.
