Mystery shrouds the burning of eight Birs of Guru Granth Sahib, placed at a Gurudwara in village Multania, in the wee hours today.

According to sources, the Birs were kept in a room on the first floor of the Gurudwara. The Granthi (priest) of the gurudwara witnessed smoke coming from the room at around 3 am today. He immediately shouted for help which was responded to by the villagers. An announcement was also made from the Gurudwara loudspeaker.

However, it took minutes to douse the flames.

The sarpanch of the village, Major Singh, said that it was the first such incident in the Gurudwara.

He added that Balwant Singh Nandgarh, Jathedar of Takht Damdama Sahib, Talwandi Sabo, had been informed about the incident and he sent Five Piaras to the spot to look into the matter.

It is learnt that due to loadshedding, there was no power supply when the incident took place and there was no one present in the room.

Villagers said that the room, where the Birs were kept, was not locked and as a precautionary measure, neither an incense stick nor a ‘Jyot’ was lit. SHO Sadar police station, Pirthi Pal Singh, recorded the statements of villagers and the priest of the Gurudwara.

If this is another attack by cowardly enemies of the panth, its just another large step down the steep ladders to narak.

Maharajh kirpa karan and may they forgive us for more mistakes made by not ensuring adequate care and security for Guru Sahib.
