Baba Dhumma’s Picture Removed From the Middle

The picture has been a cause of distress at the Gurdwara Sahib for a long time.  Sangat has asked the management to shun relations with Baba Dhumma due to his proximity with the Akali Dal (B).  Gurdwara Nanak Parkash is known to have a lot of Panthik sangat which takes active interest in Sikh issues.

Baba Harnam Singh Dhumma is one of the original founders of the Gurdwara Sahib.  He remained associated with the management and day to day affairs until the demise of Baba Thakur Singh Ji, after which he traveled to Punjab to assume leadership of Damdami Taksal.

Local sangat have asked the management to not press charges against the persons responsible for the act.  Gurdwara Sahib sevadars are said to have access to the CCTV footage.
