To secure the release of Professor Bhullar from the illegal detention of the Indian Government and to demand Bhullar's return to Germany who has already agreed to take him back, All India Sikh Students Federation (AISSF) and Sikhs For Justice (SFJ) announced to start a "Civil Disobedience" Movement from July 15, 2011. A "Justice Rally" to save Professor Bhullar from "Judicial Murder" will also be held at Jantar Mantar, New Delhi on July 15, 2011.

According to Karnail Singh Peermohammad, President AISSF, "Civil Disobedience" Movement to secure the release of Professor is launched because Professor Bhullar has been sentenced to death illegally, is in custody longer than "life sentence", and has been denied commutation by the President of India, only because Bhullar is a Sikh. During "Civil Disobedience" starting from July 15, AISSF will launch a campaign urging the public to clog and burden the Postal Service of India by sending "unstamped" letters addressed to President of India demanding release of Bhullar. The letter writing campaign will clog the Postal Service, burden the Government of India through "unstamped letters" and will put pressure on the President of India to order the release of Bhullar, added Peermohammad.

AISSF have asked CM Badal and PPC Chief Capt. Amrinder Singh to address the July 15, 2011 justice rally at Jantar Mantar to save Professor Bhullar from Judicial Murder. Participation of CM Badal and Capt. Amrinder Singh will be strong message to the Government of India that on the issue of Bhullar, Sikhs stand together, stated Peermohammad. Chief Minister of Punjab Sri Parkash Singh Badal and Punjab Pradesh Congress President Captain Amrinder Singh has already demanded the commutation of Bhullar's sentence. Speaking at July 15, 2011 rally will solidify their stand and commitment to save Bhullar's life, added Peermohammad.

According to Peermohammad, SGPC Head Avtar Singh Makkar and DSGMC Chief Sarna should also support the Civil Disobedience Movement to secure the release of Professor Bhullar by addressing the July 15, 2011 Justice Rally, since they have already taken Bhullar's family in their folds.

AISSF asked all Sikh organizations, institutions and political parties to participate in July 15, 2011 Justice Rally to secure the release of Professor Bhullar and to show solidarity with Bhullar's family.

On July 15, 2011, a memorandum will be submitted to the President of India demanding:

a) Release of Professor Bhullar who has already served longer than "life sentence".

b) Transfer Professor Bhullar to Germany who has already agreed to take him.

c) Pay adequate compensation for lengthy illegal custody of Professor Bhullar.

d) Issue a statement apologizing for gross miscarriage of justice in Bhullar's case.
