Uttarakhand Police holds up Sikhs on way to site of Gurdwara Gian Godari

April 13, 2015 | By Sikh Siyasat Bureau

Uttarakhand: The state police today detained Gurcharan Singh Babbar with around fifty other persons at Ponda Sahib in Uttarakhand, while they were on their way to the site of Gurdwara Gian Godri Sahib in Haridwar.

Sikh jatha was reportedly heading for the site Gurdwara Gian Godari Sahib to free it from those who have illegally encroached upon the Gurdwara.

Detainees were reportedly taken to a guest house by the police.

It is notable that Gurdwara Gyan Godri was a historic Sikh shrine at Haridwara that marked the memory of Guru Nanak Sahib Ji’s visit to the place and signified the rejection of superstitious rituals by Guru Sahib. The Gurdwara Sahib was destroyed during November 1984 genocidal violence against the Sikhs.
