Granthi beaten

At village Nangal Kapurthala, a Granthi Singh was removed from the presence of Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji while sitting on ‘Tabeya’ by a handful of people having no respect for Guru Sahib.
President of SGPC Jathedar Avtar Makkar has said that the disrespect of Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji is intolerable. “Those who committed the offence of disrespecting the Guru ought to be legally charged under Section 295-A for instigating religious sentiments,” he said.

He added that Guru Granth Sahib Ji is the enlightener of the world and inspires all to avoid sin


The people were seen yelling at the Granthi before he was picked up and thrown down. The granthi Singh was later taken outside and beaten by the villagers.

The cause of the thrashing is not yet known but the Granthi had to get medical attention at a nearby hospital. No case was registered against any person.
