                          HON. JERRY McNERNEY

                    in the house of representatives

                       Monday, November 16, 2015

  Mr. McNERNEY. Mr. Speaker, today, I want to honor those who were 
killed during the November 1984 anti-Sikh pogroms and massacre in 
Delhi, India. I also want to bring attention to the current desecration 
of the Sikh's Holy Scriptures. Sikhs are a minority group that should 
be officially recognized and I ask that this Congress support the 
plight of the Sikh people to gain recognition in India and halt the 
persecution against the Indian Sikh community.
