New York, USA: Hindutva forces driven by ‘Brahminical ideology’ have sharpened their attack against the Sikh religion. A special news report published by ‘Rozana Pehredar’, a Punjabi vernacular, has exposed anti-Sikh activities undertaken by Hindutva fountainhead Rashtriya Swayamsewak Sangh (RSS) and it’s affiliates in New York’s Satyanarayan Mandir.
The Rozana Pehredar report revealed that New York’s Satya Narayan Mandir, a Hindu temple, has placed an ‘idol’ (supposedly) that of first Sikh Guru, Guru Nanak Ji along with idols of Hindu deities. Making idols of Sikh Gurus is strongly prohibited in Sikh religion.
Not only this, the Satya Narayan Mandir, where various ‘karam kaand’ are undertaken, also places a saroop of Sri Guru Granth Shaib Ji (the Sikh Scripture) where clean shaven Hindu Pandits with ‘gandhi/nehru topi’ perform ‘sewa’ and ‘paath’ of Guru Granth Sahib.
A calendar published by this temple lists Guru Nanak Ji’s Parkash Gurpurb as a ‘Hindu festival’.
It is notable that Sikh religion condemns ‘idol worshiping’. An edict Akal Takht Sahib prohibits parkash of Guru Granth Sahib in Hindu temples or other places where idols are worshiped or any other activity prohibited by Sikh principles is undertaken.
Hindutva forces are heading with their evil plans to distort the unique principles of Sikh religion and assimilate Sikhs into ‘Hindutva’ fold.
