CHANDIGARH, Punjab—The Kabul resident Sikh families have left Gurdwara Sri Guru Har Rai Sahib situated in Shor Bazaar due to continuous threats being sent by the terrorist organizations. All these Sikh families have shifted to Gurdwara Sri Guru Singh Sabha situated in Karta-e-Parwan.
It is pertinent to note here that these families were looking after the day-to-day proceedings of Gurdwara Sri Guru Har Rai Sahib Ji for a long time while living there.
Sharing with Sikh24, the Afghan Sikhs informed that they were looking after the historic Gurdwara Sahibans situated in Kabul, Jalalabad, Kandhar, Karta-e-Parwan and Ghazni despite getting looted and murdered in routine since long.
“But now, it has become difficult for us to stay here as we are continually facing deadly attacks and threats by the terrorists,” they said while adding that no one is left in Afghanistan to look after their interests.
It may be recalled here that the Islamic State had murdered more than two dozen Sikhs in a suicidal attack carried out on March 25. Eight others had also lost lives in this deadly attack while eight others were left seriously injured.
