UPDATED: Delhi Sikh Leader Asked to Remove Turban at Italian Airport

Update: 08/07/2013 7:32 PM EST –  Sikh24 has learned that Bhai Manjit Singh GK, along with his associates of the DSGMC, have successfully boarded a flight to Dubai.  Bhai Manjit Singh GK was refused security clearance by the Italian Airport Security Staff who insisted GK and his associates remove their turbans for security clearance.  This request was denied by GK, a move that has received appreciation from Panthik bodies worldwide.

The issue led to a delay of over 24 hours and finally the DSGMC team has boarded their flight to Dubai.  Bhai Manjit Singh GK will be stopping in Dubai for a few days before finally continuing his journey to New Delhi, India.

As per a text messages received by United Sikhs, the Sikh passengers were given VVIP treatment after many hassles initially.  The airport security staff allowed the Sikhs to board the flight without having to remove their turban.  It should be noted that Manjit Singh GK and his associates had requested the screeners to carry on their search using a metal detector but the airport staff was adamant about the Singhs removing their dastars.

Update: We have received a video from Paramjit Singh Rana asking that Sikhs take the injustice they received to UN bodies.

ROME, Italy—Bhai Manjit Singh GK, President of Delhi Gurdwara Management Committee was asked to remove his turban at the Fiumicino Airport in Rome, Italy.  Bhai Manjit Singh was in Italy to promote awareness of the Sikh identity and help resolve turban and identity related issues Italian Sikhs had been facing there.

Sikh24 has learned that along with Bhai Manjit Singh GK, four of his associates on board an Emirates airlines flight to Dubai were refused security clearance by Italian security.  Such issues have become common in Italy where Sikh passengers are humiliated by the airport security services.

As per the latest reports, Bhai Manjit Singh GK refused to remove his turban.  Sikhs in large numbers have reached the Rome airport to protest the disgraceful incident.  Sikhs have also protested in New Delhi.  Other Sikhs accompanying Manjit Singh GK are said to be Paramjit Singh Rana, Gurvinderpal Singh, Puneet Singh Chandhok and Gurbachan Singh Cheema.

In a statement, Bhai Manjit Singh GK said, “for last almost 24 hours we are on airport and will try to take flight on Wednesday night but we will not take off our turbans.”  He further alleged that representatives of 40 Gurdwaras in Italy have approached the airport administration.

Removal of the turban—especially forced removal—in public is considered blasphemous and the team with Manjit Singh GK refused to do so.  They asked the security team to manually check the turbans using metal detectors but the airport security was adamant in asking the Sikhs to remove their dastars.

The Ambassador of India in Rome is said to be monitoring the situation and despite the efforts by the Indian Embassy in Rome, the airport administration has denied permission to Bhai GK and his associates to board their flight.

    Jas (I note Singh !!! missing yet again ) Dhaliwal
    Part time Sikh’s always skip the Singh bit, inferiority complex aye?? lol never mind. When Guru Gobind Singh Ji established Khalsa, Guru Ji did not say use Singh just for war or when it suits you. Singh is for life and for eternity, however in today’s times Singh’s are always facing a war with the five evils and fake ones like you or an escapist like you who wants to walk away from the concept of Khalsa.

    Reply: Yes, I do not want to join Guru gobind Singh Ji army hence do not want to use Singh. Yes, Khalsa has proved to me nothing more than THOGS. Let my Guru Ji decide my eternity. I pray not to grant same door of heaven where Amritdharies and Khalsa enters.

    Hilarious all those things you say they truly apply to you. Just shows you are such a small person, you have severe mental and personal issues with Sikhs, that’s my conclusion. Did you observe so far I haven’t said a single filthy or abusive thing about you but on the other hand you have spoken nothing but absolutely filth. This speaks loads about your quality the type of person you are. You go to say things about my mother this shows your upbringing, it has been bad( not a sign of Sikh). It is like you got abused , you need help. Like I said in my previous blog you are giving us insight into your psyche. You think you are hurting me but I pity you. May Wahe Guru bless your wretched soul.
    Reply: I have proved in court of law that apply to Amritdharies, Yes, you’re right I had very much respect for Amritdharies and was having Khalsa concept as pureman but 2008 it gone with wind and Amrirtdharies and Khalsa proved worse than prostitutes and smuggler. They have no respect and fear Guru Ji and proved they do not believe that Guru Granth Sahib Ji is noticing their crimes.
    I can see from your notorious ranting, that you must have suffered or got burnt in playing with Sikhs and now you are spitting poison and fire. You claim to be a grand dad but you talk like a little kid, possess small thinking, engrossed in petty issues, have childish questions ,make childish accusations etc. etc. I hope your grand children don’t read this. I am sure they don’t think highly of you anyway, no wonder the way you are, you need to see a physiotherapist…honest !!!! You are not loved person it is self evident.

    Reply: I make them aware of Amritdharies and Khalsa as my parent made aware of “Budha Dal members” during my Teenage. Most of the Sikh parents do not allow teenager to go Gurdwara odd time for SEWA, why?

    You are relentlessly tarnishing the whole Sikh community with one brush, this proves you are a jackal in hide……you stink of RSS or some politician. An enemy within. A true Sikh does not do such bakwaas. He remains focused on himself and makes others feel good and turn them into good people maybe Sikhs.
    You apparently don’t have any skills to discuss any matter in a civil manner but resort to abusive language and spewing filth (vocal diarrhea).
    Once again I recommend you to join other faiths, my doubt is you already are one , Sikhi don’t suit you, you bring shame upon us.
    I noticed you stopped saying Sikhism…..lol one thing you learned at least Mr Fake Dhaliwal, a good learner lol…Shabaash !!!!

    Reply: You’re dead wrong; I do not tarnish whole Sikh Community but Amritdhari and Khalsa THUGS. I hear Sikh, Sikhi, Sikhin and Sikhism from my childhood even last Sunday in Gurdwara. Let me remain fake Dhaliwal as I do not want to create any relations hence do not lose sleep. Do not want have dummy name like you as not born contaminated. Most of Amritdharies suck the congregation funds hence do not have self respect and no respect for others.

    Nothing wrong in saying SGGS JI.(where does it say you cannot)..yes it is abbreviated but with JI as mark of respect unlike you calling it pages (not a sign of a Sikh)…only ignorant morons like you call it pages/patre no wonder!!!

    Reply: It is GREAT INSULT as kids are called short names then feels insulted as they grow. How you dare to call “SGGS” that proves again that you do not understand Sikh culture. That proves your knowledge and of your parents, no wonder that you guy steal Guru Ji’s Galla.

    You think that you are the only one who is right and the whole world is wrong, you attack in general all Sikhs, Khalsa and Amridharis..hmmmm sure sign of personal problems. However you can abuse and talk ill of everyone and yet can’t stand to be corrected. hmmm ( not a sign of a Sikh).. ” same quote applies again “Hum nahin changeh bura nahin koi “.

    Reply: There are some percentage right but most of Sikhs live their convenient circumstances life but have little faith in Guru Granth Sahib Ji’s teaching. Amritdharies are living against the teaching as they claim superior than other Sikhs but cannot prove religious and scientifically. You can screen your fellow Amritdharies for good or bad; Let my Guru Ji decide for me as I have faith in his teaching. Do not want to cover donkeys with loin’s skin.

    Like I said there is still time to redeem your sins ..go and study SGGS “JI “..Ego is your biggest…one of the mighty chor reside in you and turning you into evil.

    Reply: Let my Guru Ji take care, you should be worried your own contamination. I have not done any sin as Amritdharies rape, steal and loot, smuggle, threat, beat, murder such as Rabjit Singh place drug in holy books, SGPC member extramarital relation In Golden Temple complex and Hazoori Ragi few years back. Where Amritdharies are hiding as no actions?

    I Look forward to you next barking session ( observe you called yourself a barking dog in your previous blog, so nothing I said or added to).lol
    I write and do not go on podium to bark hence you’re wrong here again.

    You know what the biggest sign of someone loosing a intellectual debate is ???? They start using abusive , derogatory and aggressive language and guess what? I am smiling…..Wahe Guru Ji Ka Khalsa Wahe Guru Ji Ki Fateh.

    Reply: It is befitting reply as you made statement regarding my mental status and knowledge without knowing about me. I have proved in court of law and have evidence to show any one. If Amritdharies are THUGs and do not want accept truth but wants beat around the bush. They reach nowhere. I have stated names, please verify what crimes they have committed on Sikh Plateform or real Amritdhari or not? Then I’ll accept your answer otherwise consider you to be barking human animal. I’m professional and live very respective life in my society but feel hurt that Amritdhari thugs destroying my religion and communities every day. I have right to protect.

    That’s all from me I draw a line and no more engagement with you, even though I know you would respond with all the filth , hate and derogatory language, I expect you to maintain your standards.

    Reply: I do constructive criticism and have solid truth with solid evidence to prove as per land of the law and my Guru Ji’s teaching. I’ll challenge most of Amritdharies and Khalsa those are born contaminated as yesterdays “KHAN is today’s “KHALSA”. Let Amritdharies screen each other, analyze as per Guru Ji’s teaching and plan for corrective actions to regain losing respect.

  3. Sikhs have arrived in Italy in large numbers.Despite what anyone says the Italians resent immigrants. There is an organised approach to harras, humiliate and bully Sikh passengers by the moronic spagehetti wormed Italians, esspecially those who support the Italian facist party.Italians are racist in their approach.The racist Italian thugs in uniforms watch the many Sikhs who cannot speak Italian and sometimes little English, thus they are being profiled and picked upon repeatedly.

    They do NOT check the BURKAS of the muslims!As they know their lifes would be made unbearable by the surrounding muslim countries.

    It is common knowledge European Union vide its amending order of 4th February, 2013 has already held that ETD (explosive trace detector) and HHMD (hand held metal detectors) can be used. Thus removal of turban is not essential necessary at all.

    The bottom line is that6 many Sikhs also give in easily, and these little spagehetti chewing Italians feel victorious having humiliated an individual.

    There is absolutely no excuse in this instance, as a private room could have been provided and the turbans could have been searched, if there was a reasonable belief they carried anything illegal or explosives.But when the insistence starts to do in public,the racist mentality to humilate kicks in.

    • Gurcharn Singh Ji
      Thats very true. I have asked for same protocols when ever they asked me to remove, so far with Waheguru jis kirpa I never had to remove in Spain, Greece, France and England.
      If you stick to it, explain them and tell them if all other tests fail then I shall oblige in private enclosure.
      I would then take 2 hours to re-tie my turban just to delay the flight.

      • Gursikh Piyara:
        Para 1:
        Thank you for your statement: (that I’m not a Sikh). Please state “What is definition of Sikh”. I studied Khalsa School, College hence full faith on Shri. Guru Granth Sahib Ji’s teaching. Sikh is noun and its adjective? I was taught by Amritdhari Headmaster “1430 patre” in Punjabi during Khalsa School and hear in Gurdwaras all the time.
        Para 2:
        I’m not weak and will fight until my death to clean contamination of my religion and thug leader have no power to take out from my soul. I have physical, financial and emotional contributions since my childhood, but never misinterpreted the bani like show cases do for selfish motives. Your quote must be applied to yourself if you have any knowledge of our religion.
        Para 3:
        Why turbans were removed in Delhi Gurdwara before DGPC election and Sikhs were bleeding?
        Why we Sikhs do not want to check our own system but wants to criticize other?
        Para 4:
        This was example to wake you up as you drag other countries and religions politician and want our leaders can be corrupted at same way. I think different that our leader must be very high standard with best ethics. Yes, I have mother, sisters, daughters and grandchildren, not an orphan or human animal like many in our communities.
        Para 5:
        Sikhs had highest respect in the entire world until 1947, now degraded to lower level and may go to lowest level if our Sikh leader’s trend continue against Guru Ji’s teaching. Do not assume any political idea as I’m not politician, never took any part and will not involve in politics but remain true Sikh. I was falsely implicated in 2008 by Amritdharies and Khalsa in extreme allegations in Sikh Gurdwara entry where I had been paying my due respect to my Guru Ji for my entire life and was rubbing my forehead for blessing. It is unbelievable and very difficult to imagined how despicable Khalsa and Amritdharies exist. I proved in court of Law that Khalsa and Amritdharies are cheater, looter, thugs, smugglers and prostitute like other humans as your comment stinks. My faith was shaken but came more firms that Sikhs were dishonest during Guru Gobind Singh ji’s time and now Sikhs are crooks and I have plenty evidence. All Gurdwara donations are being looted without any legal audits and pay to attorneys to cover their crimes.
        Para 6:
        I do not need any scum bag help as I have my direct prayer, faith and trust at my Guru Ji. I’m very contently and million thanks to my Guru Ji has saved me from looting congregation funds. Let my Guru decide my fate in future. You can keep your shitty idea with you as your screen name show yourself ego and do try to claim Guru.
        Para 7:
        No one is willing to take polygraph like me hence guilty that’s by cannot face the truth?
        Para 8:
        I have great appreciation of Guru ji who has blessed me with all I need in life, prey all the time Guru Nanak Dev Ji granting me wisdom since my birth, utter his name to thank for blessing, stand up to thugs and do not care for barking human dogs those live animals life as per Guru Ji’s teaching (Bani). The Sikhs are very heavily involved in drug and human smuggling as per news that I do not control or have any link. It is same and disgraces those claim well-wishers of Sikhs, its growth and unwillingness to accept the facts.

      • jas Dhaliwal(Singh Missing !!!)…such a champion of Sikhi
        Again you have not surprised us all by your aggressive tone, using language which is derogatory , aggressive, insulting and disrespectful to others . Like I said earlier you were born in Sikh family, maybe studied too in Khalsa School, but you did not become Sikh by your own choice. I have seen people from other faiths become better Sikhs than you. Being a Sikh and studying in a Khalsa School is not a measure stick. Please go get and your mental state sorted first
        Anyone who has read even once SGGS JI…cannot use such language toward others. Seems you are completely lost , full of hate and burning with ego. May Wahe Guru bless your soul
        I have already suggested if you don’t like all this Sikhi and Khalsa ,then there other four major faiths please join them, they would love you and you can rant there.
        No one likes to raise to the level of a barking dog , I have made this mistake by throwing a few roti’s at you thinking it might pacify you, lord behold I didn’t know you would never change.
        So anyone who likes not call themselves Singh but just Jas Dhaliwali…..is obviously a proud Sikh. You talk about Sikhi, yet you do not obey Guru Gobind Singh Ji is order to call your self Singh. If you had assumed a screen name like me I would thought that is fine.
        Once again you need to just mind your own Sikhi and get along, if it gives you pain so much , only two things you can do A) become a leader and make those changes B) Join other faiths.
        Good bye from me …enjoy ranting

      • Gursikh Piyara: Yes, I’ll write this type language for “Sajjan Thugs” not for respected Sikhs. You deserve it. Yes, I’m dedicated Sikh not Singh as not fighting war or in war zone as Guru Gobind Singh Ji entire life with his fauj, but living in civilized society with respect. Yes SGPC spent lot income on Khalsa School and College to give education. The institution teaches not to harass, bully, disrespect, torture, murder, rape or loot congregation fund but like you skunk continue sucking. You can recommend Amritdhari doctor, I can get mental aptitude test and will post copy for you.
        What is “SGGS”?
        You have made short term for GURU JI?
        What shame for you and your parents?
        What a shame and what type of blood your mother produced?
        Are you Muslim blood in Sikh body?
        What is your authority to direct me change my religion/
        Are you agent (Pimp) of other religion to chase out Sikhs from Sikh religion?
        Are you stating Non-Amritdharies not Sikhs?
        What is total population of Amritdharies?
        Why SGPC thugs account non-Amritdharies in their calculations of Sikhs?
        Are most of them Amritdharies or THUGS?
        Why I should get along and do smuggling with bastard Amritdharies?

        Yes, I mind my own ethic as per my education and law of land to criticize any authority or leader. I’m not slave not living in dictatorship. Do not disturb any one, obey, Pray and have trust only on GURU JI.
        A: I cannot become leader as not born contaminated hence not able to raise hand and take false oaths.
        B. I’ll not change religion but work make your mother naked without removing her clothes and prove that she has conceived dirtiest blood.
        If you want to communicate, it must be on educated ethics not like Forest Muslim’s bud.

    • kamaldeep Singh mentally retarded Sikh have made “Bole so nihal, Sat sri akal” insulter, as they can bark anywhere, any time, on any occasion like dogs without any human sense. Italian will not mind to remove their pants and show their balls. Italian does remove all clothes on beaches, swimming pools and supports club showers. It is time to review our own actions, analyze and find solution to our own created problems as we Sikhs are losing respect every day on international arena. Our leader are thugs and their follower are crooks and criminals.

      • hi Jas Dhaliwal
        Lovely to read your views, you have heavily criticised Sikh leaders. Can you please tell me which country or community does not have thug leaders. India has many MP’s who have criminal records. Your efforts to put the blame on Sikhs is pointless because all communities have black sheeps. You need to focus despite of having recognised by EU turban is a Sikh symbol why are some authorities insisting? the first protocol is using metal detector , if that fails then using of chemicals to examine, and if that still fails then you can ask a Sikh to move into personal enclosure and remove the turban himself so they can examine. I hope this helps your anti Sikh rant

      • Gursikh Piyara:
        Yes, I have heavily criticized Sikh leaders.
        1. Do Sikhs understand fundamental of Sikhism and philosophy of its founders?
        2. If other leaders eat shit then you want our Sikh leaders to eat shit?
        3. Other cut hair why we grow?
        4. Do you understand concept of our religion foundation?
        5. If other countries have thugs, why we should care?
        6. Every minute humans die, do we cry and grieve?
        7. If our love one dies or get hurt, why we feel pain and cry?
        8. If India has many MP’s who have criminal record that’s by India’s human population is called “Slum dogs” Why?
        9. I do not want Sikh leader to be black sheep that is direct disrespect to our 10 Gurus and Final Guru; Shri. Granth Sahib Ji. Do you know meaning of very first page of one thousand, four hundred and thirty pages?
        10. Why we Sikhs prohibit the drugs as other encourage?
        11. Why politician Sikhs asked to remove turban at security screening, but not professional Sikhs?
        12. Are you show case or have some knowledge of Sikh religion?
        13. Will you allow your mother, sister or daughter to be hooker as every city has hookers?
        Sikh claims that they are superior to other human but proving every day that they’re the worse humans. I challenge open debate with any Sikh intellectual, leader or head of organization that Sikhism is going down since 1947.

      • Jas Dhaliwal
        Wonderful to read your views and thanks for giving us insight into your psyche. The way you speak it shows you are not a sikh, if you are one, then you are only sikh by birth( maybe looks) and not by your own choice, that clearly reflects in your comments, your lack of respect for sikhi & understanding (note the word sikhsim was invented by British we are not any”-ism” ) A true Sikh never calls “pages” of SGGS ji, they are Angs so for a start you can stop talking about Sikhi fundamentals.
        You are critising sikhi & sikhs, the burning question is what have you done in your life to contribute or make it better? Have you heard ” Hum nahin changeh bura nahin koi”, this quote might help you. If you are so fed up of Sikhi, then this is a free world there are others who would embrace you with open arms.

        Just to englighten you a bit on turban matter. Sikhs from all walks of life have to face this issue not just the leaders as you rant. Recently a sikh pilot “a professional” was asked to remove his turban in Italy. I am an accountant I face similar issues too. Please do not make basesless points.Luckily for us Sardar Manjit Singh GK (DGPC) stood his ground and finally Italians had to bow..now say Wahe Guru Ji ka Khalsa Waheguru ji Fateh.

        I see you speak with disrepect for women in your comments below. your quote “13. Will you allow your mother, sister or daughter to be hooker as every city has hookers?” I mean how low can one stoop, bringing women into this conversation. I hope you have women in the house.

        You say sikhs/leadership has gone down since 1947,you make me laugh why does it start from that particular year? That comment of yours smells of political agenda you are on.You gave away the game.

        All you other little questions are petty, shows you are misguided, lost, disillusioned and you are burning with hate and ego. If you had read Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji, you would have all the answers. May God bless you and yourlost soul. There is still time redeem yourself and study SGGS Ji.
        No one will raise to your open debate request when you dont even know a thing.

        Finally ( your point 10) you have the audacity to talk about petty leaders & politicians and talk about our 10 Gurus in the same breath. I can’t say more, you lack utter respect for Gurus. I am not going to indulge in further dialouge with because not worthy of it

  4. OK , he was the member of Badal Party , so he does what we waan , but it is not possible to create a scene for common man.
    SO i think , it would be better we put banner at major airport which describes who we are and what is our religion so that atleast half of the world come to know for our identity.

  5. REMOVAL OF TURBAN NOT NECESSARY.
    Everyone ought to know that European Union vide its amending order of 4th February, 2013 has already held that ETD (explosive trace detector) and HHMD (hand held metal detectors) can be used. Thus removal of turban is not essential.

    Amendment brought into force with the citation, “This Regulation respects the fundamental rights and observes the principles recognized by the Charter of the human dignity, the freedom of religion, the non-discrimination, the rights of persons with disabilities and right to liberty and security.”

    Thus the Commission Regulation (EU) No. 185/2010 was amended.

  6. Old song with new leader:
    This is not first or last political drama by political Sikh skunks; as non-political professional Sikhs travel with turbans to and from Italy airports. Why those are not asked to remove turban at airport security screening?
    Those Sikhs have control of podiums, wants to have issue-cum-topic in hands to disturb congregation members peace of mind. The Sikhs, Sikhism, Sikh religion, Sikh Communities are being humiliated by thug leaders every day on some excuse to gain publicity and importance, earn living and have financial gains on the cost of Sikh ethics. They bark to get attention only.
    Why Sikh authority do not punish anyone as they remove their own each other’s turbans, pull beards in Punjab, Delhi and other part of India?
    Do Sikhs have any by-laws to punish for such crimes/insult in Punjab or India?

  7. Can we really force the other Governments and demand respect for the Turban by force or through humble appeals and networking the cause.I feel we should be pragmatic in our approach as may be a group may be allowed to travel without screening due to the intervention of MEA or our Embassies but ultimately it would effect common Sikhs traveling in one way or the other and they have no one to back them for such incidences.We need to create a global forum to defend the Sikh interests by according respect to the law of land and receiving concessions with our humble submissions as security of people traveling on board the flights is Prime concern of the entire world.
