Amritsar, September 24
The Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) today flayed the arrest of ‘Amritdhari’ Sikh student at the University of North Carolina, US, by the police for wearing a ‘kirpan’.
SGPC chief Harjinder Singh Dhami termed the incident highly objectionable and urged External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar and Indian Ambassador to the US, Taranjit Singh Sandhu, to look into the matter. The incident in which a cop can be seen handcuffing the student has gone viral.
