She is messed up for life perhaps due to past.
Modi is not pro Sikh. Please read how he harassed and tried to drive out Sikh farmers of Gujarat when he was Gujarat CM.
Swamy is two faced and is used by RAW, RSS, IB to have back channel talks with Sikhs and integrate Sikh separatists from abroad also in mainstream. This is why he pretends to condemn 1984 and even goes to extent of calling Bhindranwale a saint and defends him.
Most of BJP brass does not like him BTW. He is seen as blabbering idiot.
He or Modi do NOT recognise Sikhs as separate religion and keep repeating tripe of Sikhism being offshoot of Hinduism or Guru Gobind Singh creating Khalsa only to protect Hindus and fight Muslims.
The recent praise for Sikhs or condemning 1984 or bashing Indira is only done to counter INC and expose it as bigger sinner against minorities and original murderer of democracy so that INC stops acting holier than thou about minorities or human rights or democracy.
I am shocked at number of young Sikhs who seem to be carried away by drama of Swamy or Modi.
There were BJP leaders from MP, UP who openly said they were missing Indira Gandhi and said she handled it right in 1984 or called farmers Khalistanis.
To claim only IT cell trolls did it and no one else, is untrue.
IT cell, babas, godmen, celebs, TV anchors close to BJP, RSS do everything at bidding of high command. The high command did nothing to stop them either.
Modi even repeated the LIE that farmers attacked Red Fort or desecrated Indian flag though they did NOT desecrate or remove Tiranga at all. And Modi whined in Mann ki baat ki aaj bahut bura hua blah blah. He is a wily man who pretends to be friendly but keeps encouraging a certain narrative too.
Anyone who thinks even mildly that RW is friend of Sikhs, really needs to rethink and relook.
It was this Sanghi/pro RW editor Girilal Jain of TOI who was at forefront of inciting anti Sikh hate in 80s and 90s and even justified Nov 1984 genocide claiming Sikhs deserved it. Rather bashed victims who moved to Punjab for safety, claiming they will get radicalised or become militants or pose a security threat to Hindus of Punjab.
Even when Modi withdrew farm laws he did not say he did it for farmers. He said they were unable to explain benefits to farmers so they are withdrawing these laws for sake of security, integrity, unity and national interest of India. Indirectly hinting as if farmers would have broken the country or its unity if the laws were not withdrawn - lending credence to propaganda linking farmers to terrorism and separatism.
