The Khalistan Referendum is an unofficial non binding referendum organized by the Sikhs for Justice across multiple countries regarding the potential creation of a separate Sikh state from within the territory of India.[1] The proposed state will include Indian Punjab, as well as Chandigarh, Himachal Pradesh, Haryana and several districts of Uttarakhnad, Uttar Pradesh and Rajasthan.[2] Its goal is to seek a consensus among diasporic Sikhs for the creation of a nation-state to be called Khalistan.[3]
