लोगों को कानून हाथ में लेने के लिए मजबूर किया गया': 'अपवित्रीकरण' के लिए एक के बाद एक सिखों की पीट-पीट कर हत्या कर दी गई

The Sikh community is in turmoil following the tragic death of a 19-year-old man in Punjab's Ferozepur, allegedly for desecrating the Guru Granth Sahib, the holy scripture of Sikhism. The Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC), responsible for managing the Golden Temple in Amritsar, has pointed fingers at the government, accusing it of inaction in dealing with cases of sacrilege.

In a scathing statement posted on social media, the SGPC questioned the lack of "exemplary justice" in numerous cases where the Guru Granth Sahib was disrespected or violated in Punjab and Haryana. The committee highlighted the case of Gurmeet Ram Rahim, the controversial leader of the Dera Sacha Sauda, who has been convicted of heinous crimes including rape and murder. Despite allegations of sacrilege against him, the SGPC noted that no significant action has been taken against him. They suggested that political interests might be influencing the handling of such cases, alluding to vote bank politics.

The SGPC's statement reflects the frustration and anger within the Sikh community over what they perceive as a failure of the government to uphold justice and protect their religious sentiments. The sacredness of the Guru Granth Sahib holds immense importance for Sikhs, and any act of disrespect or sacrilege is deeply offensive to them.

The incident in Ferozepur, where a young man lost his life allegedly for tearing pages of the Guru Granth Sahib, has further ignited tensions. The SGPC's condemnation of the government's inaction is a call for accountability and justice.

Meanwhile, the Akal Takht's Jathedar has called for a social boycott of the deceased's family, emphasizing the seriousness with which the Sikh leadership views acts of sacrilege. Social boycott is a significant measure within the Sikh community, and such a call indicates the severity of the situation.

The SGPC's accusation against the government not only sheds light on the immediate issue of sacrilege but also raises broader questions about the rule of law and the government's responsibility to protect religious freedoms. The call for "exemplary justice" reflects the community's demand for decisive action to prevent such incidents from happening in the future.

As the investigation into the Ferozepur incident unfolds, it is clear that tensions are running high, and the demand for justice is paramount. The SGPC's statement serves as a reminder of the importance of upholding religious values and ensuring justice for all, regardless of political considerations.
