Sikhs for Justice (SFJ) is a US-based secessionist group that supports the secession of Punjab from India as Khalistan. Founded and primarily headed by lawyer Gurpatwant Singh Pannun in 2009. The organization was created in response to the murders of Sikhs after Prime Minister, Indira Gandhi death by her Sikh bodyguards..

The events after the murder of the Prime Minister included the murders of around 3,000 Sikhs. The murderers did not stop after the assassination, the government implemented a "give no quarter" initiative. This led to the further pursuit of the killing of the Sikh community in Punjab.
