Free Movement Should be allowed to Amritdhari Sikhs

23rd September 2022 at 03:53 PM

Deputation called on the Deputy Commissioner 

Chandigarh: 13th September 2022: (Kartika Singh//Punjab Screen)::

Unity in diversity is the specialty of India and now this trend is gaining strength all over the world. Tilakdhari, Trishuldhari, Tir Kaman Dhari, and Kripandhari used to travel together even a few decades ago. They used to eat and drink together. The arms if ever raised, were raised only for self-preservation or for the protection of the oppressed. With the exception of conspiratorial mischiefious doings during the last few decades, there has never been any complaint from the Singhs or the Singhs' Kakaars. Inspite of this sometimes Sikh students are stopped while entering schools and colleges. Sometimes they are stopped at a place like the airport and sometimes at some other places as well. Recently, an amritdhari youth was arrested at Fatehgarh Sahib. We are printing the related photo, which has been taken from the internet as a reference with this news. All these incidents have a bad effect on the Sikh mentality. Central Sri Guru Singh Sabha has taken serious notice of this. The Central Singh Sabha, which has been active for a long time to remove filth in society and politics, has also met with the Deputy Commissioner along with selected Sikh representatives.

Amritdhari (Baptised)  Sikhs Wearing constitutionally sanctioned symbols like sword be allowed free movement at Public Places. 

A deputation of prominent Sikhs today called on The Deputy Commissioner and demanded that Sikhs symbols should be allowed free movement at public places. Five symbols were religiously sanctioned for sikhs at the creation of Khalsa by Guru Gobind Singh in 1699.   

The Article 25(2) (b) of the Constitution has given right to the Sikhs to carry kirpans and wear other symbols. Article 25 also grants right to freedom of conscience and to profess, practice and propagate religion.

Despite this, Giani Kewal Singh, former Jathedar Takht Sri Damdama Sahib, was not allowed to travel in the Delhi Metro. Several court verdicts have endorsed, that five symbols are essential for the Sikhs. 

Only last year, the Bureau of Civil Aviation Security (BCAS) allowed aircraft passengers to wear kirpans. Employees working in domestic or international terminals, were not be allowed to carry Kirpan. But recently Sikh employees were allowed to wear Kirpan. Unfortunately security personnel have been stopping Amritdhari Sikh passengers at metro stations and airport.

Similarly, in competitive exams like NEET, JEE and school board exams, Sikh students wearing the kirpan were forced to take off the kirpan. This has resulted in embarrassment, mental torture, loss of dignity of the Sikhs besides injuring the religions sentiment of the Sikh community as a whole. 

The memorandum requested the government to investigate incidents where Sikhs with symbols were harassed and ensure that such incidents should not occur in the future.

Signature at the memorandum Dr. Khushhal Singh, (General Secretary) Jaspal Singh Sidhu, Incharge Sikh Media Center, Chandigarh, Dr. Pyara Lal Garg, Gurjot Singh Sahni, Chandigarh Gurudwara Organisation, Parmjeet Singh, Sikh Misnery college (Chandigarh), Gurnam Singh Sidhu and Rachhpal Singh.

No industrial unit near Mattewara forests: Says CM

11th July 2022 at 4:27 PM

Move aimed at saving the precious water resources and forests of the state 

Assails Captain for clearing the project without studying its castigating effects on environment and ecological balance  

Chandigarh: 11th July 2022: (Punjab Screen Bureau)::

Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann today announced that no Industrial unit will be set up at the proposed site near the Mattewara forests for saving the precious water resources and woods of the state.

“I will categorically like to announce that not only in Mattewara but the state government will not allow any industry to come up on the river banks of Punjab for avoiding any sort of water pollution in them” announced the Chief Minister after a meeting with the Public Action Committee on Mattewara Forest.

The Chief Minister bemoaned that his predecessor Captain Amarinder Singh had gave nod to the project envisaged by the Union government for setting up Textile park over 1000 acres on this land, without even thinking about its pros and cons. He said that the proposed project site is located near the Mattewara forests and on floodplains of river Satluj but the Captain government totally ignored the castigating effects which this project will have on the environment and ecology of the state. Bhagwant Mann said that apart from cutting of trees this project would have also lead to massive pollution in the river water thereby jeopardising the human life along with flora and fauna in the region.

The Chief Minister said that when voted to power his government minutely studied the project and found that this will disturb the ecological balance of the area. He said that keeping in view the repercussions of this project on the environment and human life, the state government has decided that no industrial unit will be set up this land. Rather, Bhagwant Mann said that Punjab government will preserve these ‘green arteries’ of the state by all means.

The Chief Minister said that the state government is ready to allot any new chunk of land for this proposed Textile park with the condition that it doesn’t pollute the waters of the state. Bhagwant Mann reiterated the firm commitment of the state government to check the environmental pollution for making Punjab clean, green and pollution free.
