Sikh forced to remove turban

London, Jan. 22: The protest over the proposed ban on religious headgear in France escalated as Sikhs here claimed a man was forced to remove his turban before entering a government building in Paris.

There is also growing confusion over the French law against the Muslim hijab and Jewish skullcap after the education minister hinted that bandanas and beards could also be banned and Sikhs could wear hairnets instead of turbans. France’s 7,000-strong Sikh community was told that its boys could keep their turbans provided that they were invisible. This was interpreted

to mean hairnets and Sikhs say this is unacceptable.

The government had neglected to take account of the Sikhs when the law was prepared. But even before it is passed in Parliament, an incident involving 50-year-old Jagmohan Singh from a Paris suburb has further infuriated the Sikh community here. They had written to French President Jacques Chirac last week highlighting their concerns over such a ban.

French Sikhs appealed to the government again on Wednesday to rethink the ban on conspicuous headdress. “The Sikhs of France want to draw your attention to the injustice which this law on secularity is going to create,” the Gurdwara Singh Sabha Association, the country’s main Sikh body, said.

The French government, meanwhile, was struggling to disown the fresh remarks made to Parliament by education minister Luc Ferry as he tried to explain the logic behind the outlawing of conspicuously manifested religious symbols.

I was asked to take of my 'hat' ..when goign to the parliament house, with the school.

I spoke to them in the end, and my teacher spoek to them so I was aloud

but actually taking it OFF it PATHETIC

When I was in the church of Notra dam (with classh)

the guard told me in french:P to take of my 'hat'

My french teacher had a lil talk 2 him, and it was all fine

I find it ridiculous if that SIngh actually DID take it off
