| Protests in Jammu against Mob Attack on Gurdwara Nankana Sahib in Pakistan | | | 
Jammu, Jan 4: Several Sikh organisations and the Shiv Sena Dogra Front (SSDF) on Saturday staged separate protests here to condemn the mob attack on the Gurdwara Nankana Sahib and the stone pelting on the pilgrims in Pakistan. Nankana Sahib Gurdwara Attacked in Pakistan: Rahul Gandhi Condemns Stone Pelting at Sikh Holy Shrine, Says 'Bigotry Knows No Boundary'.
The protests were held in different parts of the city and Poonch district town with the participants chanting slogans against Pakistan and setting ablaze the effigies of Pakistan premier Imran Khan, officials said. However, they said the protesters dispersed peacefully. A mob on Friday attacked the shrine where the Sikhism founder Guru Nanak Dev was born.
"Elements in Pakistan want to give trouble to the minorities including the Sikhs. An immediate probe would fix the responsibility following which action can be taken against the culprits," All Parties Sikh Coordination Committee (APSCC) chairman Jagmohan Singh Raina said in a statement here.
He said at a time when some bonhomie had been established between India and Pakistan over the opening of the Kartarpur corridor, the attack on the gurdwara is somewhat suspicious. He asked the members of his community to remain vigilant against "divisive elements". |
