AMRITSAR SAHIB—Fearing the fury expressed by Sikhs across the world, notorious Akali leader Bikram Majithia, today, tendered his apology for distorting the words of a shabad by Sri Guru Gobind Singh ji. Majithia had put the name of Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Arun Jaitley in place of pronoun used by Guru Sahib in the shabad. He posted a video of his apology on his Facebook account as well as sending it in writing to Sri Akal Takht Sahib. Media reports indicate, however, that Sri Akal Takht Sahib Jathedar Giani Gurbachan Singh, did not accept his apology for the blasphemy due to pressure of Sikh Sangat.
Majithia said in his apology that he had realized the mistake done by him unmindfully, for which he humbly tendered apology before Sikh Panth. He said, “Whenever a Sikh carries out mistake unwittingly and tenders apology politely, Guru Sahib accepts it.
Meanwhile, Giani Gurbachan Singh has clarified that the written apology sent by Majithia has not been accepted. He said that any decision in this matter would be taken only in the meeting of Panj Singh Sahiban, a council of five elders. The head of the Akal Takht, highest temporal seat of the Sikhs, could order Majithia to be presented before him.
Meanwhile, Sikh Sangat has carried out protests against Majithia in Amritsar and other parts of Punjab. A large scale protest was organized in Amritsar in which a number of Panthik organizations took part seeking action against Bikram Majithia and other Akalis who are responsible for mis-using Gurbani for self-gains. Members of Sikh Youth Federation Bhindrawale and Shiromani Akali Dal (Amritsar) submitted a memorandum to Deputy Commissioner seeking action against Majithia. Sikh activists also requested Giani Gurbachan Singh to sack the Akali leader.

Je Sikh nu sikh na maare, taan sikh kade na haare.
IT SEEMS THAT
MAJEETHIA IS NOT A SIKH OF GURU GOBIND SINGH BUT A SON OF ARUN JAITTLY AND RSS,,,,,,,,,
How low can a politician stoop? Majithia is a perfect example. He would not mind replacing the Guru Granth Sahib with some other Hindu granth if it suits to his political interests. He has no qualms about pushing the youth of Punjab to drugs. Could a person really be so shameless is really difficult to accept? I do hope the Akal Takht issues a very strict edict, and not a symbolic one, against him so that no one in future dares to desecrate holy Baani.
There is another video where he threatens another politician in parliament and warned him to sit down and shut up or he will kill him. He is not a SIKH, he is no more than just a politican who only looks after there interest.
