Urgent Calls for rescue from Afghan Sikhs and Hindus

Dear Supporters,

Given the rapidly developing and escalating situation in Afghanistan our thoughts and prayers are with the people of Afghanistan.

As a humanitarian aid organization that has been actively engaged in the safety and well-being of ethnic minorities of Afghanistan we are trying our best to maintain our focus on the safety of Sikh & Hindu families in Afghanistan.

Our emergency response teams are doing their best to assess the situation and provide support to families that need assistance at the shortest of notice, including facilitating their evacuation and settlement in a secure environment.

We are in touch with families and community leaders from Kabul and Jalalabad. There are approximately 150 people in Gurudwara Karte Parwan in Kabul. The situation is dire and messages we are hearing from Sikhs and Hindus in Afghanistan are highlighting the perilous circumstances and uncertain future in the coming days.

Our teams are in touch with families in Kabul that are trying to leave Afghanistan for safer sanctuaries. We are in communication with US President J. Biden, Secretary of State, A. Blinken, Canada’s Minister of Refugees, Immigration & Citizenship. Minister Mendicino, United Kingdom Home Secretary, P. Patel and United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, M. Bachelet. 

We have a 24 hour Helpdesk service for displaced Afghanistan minority communities (Hindus and Sikhs).
