giani_gurbachan_singh_jathedarAMRITSAR SAHIB—Appointed Akal Takht Jathedar Giani Gurbachan Singh, while taking a strong note of certain unscrupulous elements posting anti-religion comments, views and pictures on the internet has warned stern action against them.  He said such acts are liable to provoke adverse reactions from members of the community.

Giani Gurbachan Singh’s statement came after morphed photographs of Guru Nanak Dev and Guru Gobind Singh were pasted on social networking sites. In a similar case, an individual from Moga had also posted derogatory and objectionable remarks on Sikh Gurus and posted them on the internet.

Jathedar said it is not only a problem for Sikhism but such elements make attempts to hurt the religious sentiments of members of other communities as well. It is a deliberate attempt to disturb communal peace and harmony, he added.

He asked the Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) president Avtar Singh Makkar to take up the issue with Centre and state governments, demanding stern punishments for such individuals. His statement read, “Such activities are not only anti-religious but anti-national as well, as India is a secular country.”

  2. It is first news of 2013 that Akal Takht Jathedar Giani Gurbachan Singh taking a strong note of certain unscrupulous elements posting anti-religion comments views and pictures on the internet has warned stern action against them. Such acts are not only liable to provoke adverse reactions from members of the community members, but create feeling that our donations are sucked by dummy Jathedars. Let’s wait and watch what action Jathedar’ll take?

    Giani Gurbachan Singh must address its internal continuous harassment Sikh victims of Sikh Religious places that have no place to complaint but to challenge the behavior integrity of Sikh managements through Internet resources. Please look under your own cot as per our fore-fathers dialogue as we Sikhs are responsible to ignite the fire in ocean. Why Sikhs take false oaths and get involve in anti-religion business that has adverse reaction for Sikh communities?
