The North American Punjabi Association (NAPA), representing the sentiments of the global Punjabi diaspora, extends its profound respect and heartfelt appreciation to Shri Satya Pal Malik, former Governor of Meghalaya, Goa, Jammu & Kashmir, and Bihar, for his unwavering stand in defense of farmers’ rights and democratic principles.In an era where truth is often silenced and dissent is targeted, Shri Malik has emerged as a fearless voice who has consistently spoken truth to power. His candid revelations regarding the plight of farmers, governance failures, and the systemic suppression of civil liberties have not only resonated across India but have also deeply touched Punjabis living abroad who are concerned about the deteriorating democratic fabric of the nation.
Satnam Singh Chahal, Executive Director of NAPA, stated, “The Punjabi diaspora across North America holds immense regard for Shri Satya Pal Malik. His integrity, fearlessness, and commitment to the rights of common citizens, especially the farmers of Punjab, Haryana, and across India, are exemplary. He has become a beacon of hope for those who believe in the true spirit of India’s democracy.”
Chahal further urged political leaders, civil society, and the media to uphold the values that Shri Malik has tirelessly advocated for. He emphasized that voices like his must be amplified, not suppressed, in a democratic society.The North American Punjabi Association stands in solidarity with Shri Satya Pal Malik and calls upon the Indian Government to listen to voices of conscience rather than silencing them. The Punjabi diaspora worldwide will continue to support those who strive for truth, justice, and the dignity of the Indian farmer
