US-based Sikh businessman praises Modi for putting India on world map
Darshan Singh Dhaliwal, a non-resident Indian Sikh businessman, who recently met Narendra Modi at the State Dinner hosted by US President Joe Biden at the White House, said he praised the Indian PM for putting the nation on the world map.
He said people in the West hardly knew about India but the scenario has changed now.
Darshan Singh Dhaliwal has been staying in the US for the past five decades.
“Today, Modi Ji has put India on the world map, I don’t think we could ask for anything more. People have started looking up to India, the business people,” he told UNI.
“Modi has done great things for the Sikhs. He has done a lot of great things for everyone, but for the Sikh, he has really gone out of the way. He has taken the 18 per cent GST off the langar, opened Kartarpur Corridor which nobody ever did before and he announced Veer Bal Diwas for Chhote Sahibzade (Guru Gobind Singh’s sons). These things were unheard of before him. We even joke around that Modi Ji is more Sikh than anyone else”, Dhaliwal told ANI.
The NRI Sikh philanthropist said he had been invited by PM Modi to India. “It was wonderful, he has invited me to India, and I will be coming soon, we will spend some more time together,” said Dhaliwal.
Speaking about anti-India activists by Khalistani separatists in Canada and other parts of the world, Dhaliwal said they are few people with their own personal agenda.
“When Congress was in power they were against it, when Modi Ji is in power they are now against it, when Akalis had Punjab, they were against it and when AAP is there they are against it”, said Dhaliwal.
“The biggest thing that they will tell us is that we want Khalistan. Where do you want Khalistan? Is it going to be in some place in India, or is it going to be someplace outside where they think Khalistan is, can they even spell Khalistan? How do you spell it?”, he lambasted those raising a demand for Khalistan.
