So are you saying we Indians don't trust Sikhs and Muslims in a relatively minor position like SPG but trust them in vital positions like President,Vice president,Prime minister,chief of armed staff,Prime ministers economic advisory committee,chairman & vice chairman of planning commission etc.,Captain of Indian cricket team etc. Go and find out how many times these posts have been held by non hindus. The answer will be MANY TIMES.

@ramsob wow.. Pakistani talking about minority?.. Well you have no minority left in your country.. from 10% hindu population after creation of Pakistan to less than 1% hindu population in today's Pakistan (as compared to India where Muslims have grown in percentage and absolute numbers), you have no locus standi on this issue

@vinaydey2006 That doesn't rid your society of all the ills and shabby treatment of the minorities in India especially Muslims who remain mostly marginalized and economically,socially and politically deprived !!

@kanthasingh54 ,

An Indian PM faces threats from all religions and regions and even genders potentially..... lolz!..... If you think like that noone can be in SPG....... ha ha

As far as NSG (National Security Gaurds) is considered it has people from all religions, languages, castes and genders !.....

[anant14]

@kanthasingh54 ,

You see SPG identity is secret. It is drawn from both police forces (all states including Punjab, plus central police organizations like CRPF, BSF etc) and Army....... the directors are from IPS ranks and the actual officers on ground are from Army.......Each state has a local SPG unit (consisting of local police) for outer level security.......

Therefore such rumors should not be believed..... but I can guarantee my friend from Nagaland is there (there are Naga rebel group )

[anant14]

The SPG identity is secret........only the top positions are known........it is also drawn from both the police forces (CRPF/BSF/some state polices/ITBP) and the army.......the leadership is from IPS and Army both...... so no one can say that there are are no Muslims and Sikhs.......or even Hindus......therefore such propaganda is not correct........

@kanthasingh54 - kantha sngh i have no idea why you are so angry mate... firstly please understand ....the assasination of indira gandhi evoked a reaction . true.. was it right ? NO//

But after partition what Indira Gandhi ws trying to do was to keep the peace.. and the reason military entered your gurdwara was because there was a plan being made to kill the muslims .... see out of religion was it not logical ?

im christian , should i speak about how hindus are suppressing me ? NO

[errolmiranda]

@kanthasingh54 yeah right ! so are you trying to state that in Pakistan even ONE HINDU OR CHRIsTIAN has been given a major position???/ NEVER ! Please ask Pakistan to be accountable for their actions first then speak of India needing to be accountable to Pakistan.
