Fazilka Farmer’s Plight Echoes Sarabjit Tragedy: Plea for Govt Intervention
Amritpal Singh, a farmer from Fazilka, Punjab, finds himself incarcerated in Pakistan after inadvertently crossing the border. His predicament has sparked immense worry amongst his family and the local community.
His father, distraught and fearing for his son’s safety, has issued a desperate appeal to the Indian government. He is deeply concerned about potential mistreatment and delays in Amritpal’s repatriation.
The father draws chilling parallels to the tragic death of Sarabjit Singh, an Indian prisoner who died in a Pakistani jail. This comparison underscores the gravity of the situation and the family’s profound anxieties.
The incident highlights the vulnerability of border residents and the urgent need for stronger mechanisms to prevent such accidental crossings and ensure swift repatriation of those who do. The case demands immediate attention from New Delhi to prevent a repeat of past tragedies.
