Akal Takht Jathedar cautions Sikhs against RSS activities

November 19, 2014 | By Parmjeet Singh

Amritsar, Punjab: After holding a meeting of “Five Sikh Jathedars” at Akal Takht secretariat in Amritsar, the Akal Takht Jathedat Giani Gurbachan Singh, in his message to the Sikhs, raised alarm against Rashtriya Sewayamsewak Sangh’s activities. Giani Gurbachan Singh said that the Sikhs should remain alert against the activities of Hindutva bodies. The meeting of Five Singh Sahibs was held on November 17, 2014.

It is notable that there is a sudden rise in RSS activities in Punjab after the formation of Narendra Modi led Hindutva government in India. The Hindutva fountainhead has revived it’s controversial wing called Rashtriya Sikh Sangat (also called RSS). Rashtriya Sikh Sangat was formed by the Sangh to conduct Hindutva activities while projecting Sikh faces and thereby execute it’s plans to secure assimilation of Sikhs to Hindutva fold.

It may be recalled that on 23 July, 2004 the Rashtriya Sikh Sangat was declared an ‘anti-Sikh outfit’ by Akal Takht Sahib. A Sandesh (message) issued from Akal Takht Sahib under the signatures of five Sikh Jathedars had clarified that activities of the Rashtriya Sikh Sangat as well as the RSS were harmful for the Sikh nation, thus both these controversial bodies were declared ‘anti-Sikh’.
