Sirsa demands FIR against YouTuber Rathee for hurting Sikh feelings

BJP leader and Delhi minister Manjinder Singh Sirsa today demanded an FIR against YouTuber Dhruv Rathee for a video which allegedly misrepresents the Sikh religion.

Sirsa wrote on X "I condemn Dhruv Rathee’s recent video on “The Sikh Warrior Who Terrified the Mughals” that is not only factually flawed but blatantly disrespectful to Sikh history and sentiments. Showing Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ji, the embodiment of courage and divinity, crying as a child is an insult to the very spirit of Sikhism, which stands for fearlessness, resilience and Chardi Kala."

Sirsa said the Delhi Sikh Gurdwara Management Committee has filed a complaint against Rathee with Delhi police and sought a review of his YouTube account for repeated offenses that hurt religious sentiments.

"Delhi Police should register an FIR against Dhruv Rathee under Section 295A for deliberate and malicious acts intended to outrage religious feelings.

The Sikh community will never tolerate distortion of its sacred history by a Congress stooge," said Sirsa.
