Demand for the excommunication of Narien Singh Chaura has stirred a controversy
Amritsar : Sikh hardliners are gearing up to take head-on with the SGPC on its proposal to excommunicate Narien Singh Chaura, a alleged diehard Khalistani activist who attacked Sukhbir Singh Badal on Dec 4 outside Sri Darbar Sahib main entrance gate.
To express their opposition and objection on the proposal of Shiromani Committee to excommunicate Narien Singh , the Dal Khalsa has given a call for gathering of panthic organizations and personalities on December 18 at Akal Takht Sahib.
The spokesperson of the organization said that three years ago on the 18th, an unidentified miscreant has attempted a sacrilege at Sri Darbar Sahib, about which there’s no clue till date. He admitted that the Sikhs, the government and the administration have failed miserably in tracking the case, ascertaining the identity and intentions of the conspirators. He said that after the gathering, a prayer will be offered on the completion of three years of this heart-wrenching incident.
Dal Khalsa senior leader Paramjit Singh Mand appealed to former Jathedars, panthak parties, representatives of organizations and missionary colleges, Singh Sabhas, Sikh scholars and students to attend the gathering on 18. Disclosing the reason for calling the meeting, he said in the wake of SGPC proposed to excommunicate Bhai Chaura on the behest of the Akali leadership, it has become essential for the Sikh organizations to put the Panthic point of view jointly before the Akal Takht .
He said the unprincipled and directionless Akali leadership has made SGPC President Harjinder Singh Dhami as scapegoat by making unreasonable and uncalled demand through the SGPC.
He cautioned the Jathedar Sahibs not to fall into the trap laid down by the Akalis and at the same time called upon every section and every segment of the panth to unite to defeat the dirty and divisive tactics of the present Akali leadership.
He said that the Dal Khalsa believes that such an absurd and unprincipled demand by the current leadership of the Shiromani Committee will create bad blood among moderate and hardliner Sikhs and the consequences of which will affect the entire community. and create an atmosphere of civil war within the nation.
