‘Saroop’ of Guru Granth Sahib forcibly taken away, SGPC files complaint against Satkar Committee members

Amritsar, July 6

A month after the ‘saroop’ of Guru Granth Sahib was forcibly taken away from a house for allegedly not following the ‘maryada’, the family along with the SGPC on Tuesday lodged a police complaint against the Satkar Committee members and an SHO, accused of patronising them.

SGPC member Bibi Kiranjot Kaur that said on June 2, around 15-20 satkar panel members forcibly entered the house of a Sikh family and took away the ‘saroop’. It was neither delivered to the Akal Takht nor Gurdwara Ramsar Sahib. A probe conducted on the complaint received by the SGPC later revealed the Gursikh family was taking care of the ‘saroop’ as per the ‘maryada’. — TNS
