Advocates Khuswinder Singh Grewal and Anmol Singh Grewal, along with DS
Gill, after hectic effects, research and documentation, today, completed
IHRO Report, with an Observation: "How the Ecclesiastical Court of Akal
Takhat was managed is not difficult to comprehend. Jathedar Joginder
Singh Vedanti and Jathedar Balwant Singh Nandgarh are possessed souls
under the influence of Purewal, and are still in his favour even after
worldwide exposer of Purewal's game-plan. In legal lexicon, it is
called- 'Quid pro Quo' (something for something, in Latin)- DS Gill Chair IHRO
Forces Behind Purewal
Purewal’s
JANTRI 500 YEARS was published during the tenure of Chief Minister
Beant Singh by Punjab School Education Board in November 1994 against
norms of the Board. The revised version of it is still to be published
even after a lapse of 20 years. Four months later ( March 28-30,1995),
Purewal is shown present by proxy in Punjab History Conference
Proceedings (27th Session),held at Punjabi University Patiala during the
tenure of Dr Joginder Singh Puar. It is patent from the Resume of the
proceedings (pp.317-319) that Purewal did not attend the proceedings and
his name is not mentioned in the Resume.
But
in spite of his absence from the proceedings, his following four papers
were published against all established procedure of the university:
(i) Problem of Date Conversion in Sikh History (pp.261-269);
(ii) The Date of Founding of Akal Takhat Sahib (pp.283-284);
(iii) The Changing Vaisakhi Date in Common Era and Proposed New Calendar for Khalsa Samvat (pp.285-289);
(iv) Birth Date of Guru Nanak Dev Ji (pp.306-311).
Never
in the 45 years history of Punjab History Conferences one scholar is
allowed to read/present four papers in one Section. This privilege was
granted to Purewal for the first and last time. It was also for the
first and last time that four papers of a unknown writer were included
without his attending the Conference.
Again
this special privilege was granted to Purewal. Now it is upon the
university authority to reveal that (i) who invited a unknown writer
Purewal in the conference and what were the considerations for such
privileges?If he was invited and attended the proceedings, then who
recommended his name.If he attended the proceedings, then as per norms
what were the comments of eminent historians, Dr J.S. Grewal, Dr S.S.
Bal, Dr Kirpal Singh and other historians on these papers and Purewal's
replies.
After
this introduction of Purewal to the literary world in a unique
manner,Institute of Sikh Studies, Chandigarh took over the charge of the
game plan of Purewal, duly patronized by the Government to create
confusion among the Sikhs on their Gurpurbs, the only source of unity
among the Sikhs, in which they succeeded.
The
SGPC never passed any Resolution to authorize Purewal to prepare the
so-called Nanakshahi Calendar; it was given to the SGPC through Dr
Kharak Singh Ji. Before this misadventure, Institute of Sikh Studies
(IOSS) also had favored the Kala Afghana lobby, Bhasauria lobby by
giving rejection slips to Dasam Granth, Bhagat Bani, Bhatt Bani in their
books and Journal.
Top
romote Purewal’s dangerous game-plan, the writers associated with the
Institute (Dr Kirpal Singh, Dr Balwant Singh Dhillon, Surjit Singh
Gandhi, Dr Darshan Singh, Dr Dalbir Singh Dhillon …), started the
propaganda in favour of this so-called Nanakshahi Calendar with all the
resources at their disposal with perfidious lies wilfully and which were
duly rebutted in writing by Prof Anurag Singh, Col Surjit Singh Nishan,
Sri Guru Singh Sabha, Amritsar through Principal Santokh Singh, S.
Maluk Singh, Damdami Taksal and host of other Sampardayas and
organisations.
Despite
the fact that the Jathedars of two Takhats (Patna Sahib and Hazur
Sahib) did not give their consent to the so-called Nanakshahi Calendar,
the Institute of Sikh Studies, even before the release of this distorted
and plagiarized Calendar, published the news in their Journal that the
Calendar has been passed by the Clergy with minor changes (See the
attached photo).
As
already established that this distorted Calendar is a carbon copy of
Indian National Saka Calendar, it is also an infringement of Copy Right
Act, and punishable with imprisonment and fine.
It
is surprising that this Hindu Calendar, issued in the sacred name of
Guru Nanak as a emotional black-mailing tactics, was released on
Baisakhi of 2003 by Prof Kirpal Singh Badungar, president SGPC, and
Fakhar-i-Quam Parkash Singh Badal, now crowned as Padam Vibushan by
President of India.
