Formed in 2007 with Avtar Singh Pannun as its President along with and Gurpatwant Pannun, the source said SFJ is running its secessionist campaign for the last three years in the garb of so-called unofficial Referendum 2020 for the "self-determination of Sikhs" which it plans to hold in November 2020 in India and in countries where the Sikh diaspora exists.
