The police resorted to mild lathi charge to avert a clash between SGPC and HSGPC supporters as the latter announced its plans to gherao SGPC chief Avtar Singh Makkar and present him “knickers” on his visit to Karnal today.

HSGPC workers waiting for Makkar at the rest house here to present a memorandum on the changes made in the Nanakshahi calendar by the SGPC learnt that the police had changed Makkar’s route who was to address a congregation on Parkash Utsav of Guru Gobind Singh at Gurdwara Singh Sabha.Agitated HSGPC members proceeded towards the gurdwara but police were intercepted, leading to a scuffle in which HSGPC ad hoc president Jagdish Singh Jhinda was hurt, bleeding from the nose.

The infuriated mob blocked the Karnal-Kachwa road for more than two hours and insisted on meeting Makkar. The DSP, headquarters, Surinder Bhoria, pacified the crowd. He asked Jhinda to send a delegation of five members to present the memorandum.

Trouble began when supporters of the HSGPC threw a pair of knickers at Makkar as he boarded his car. Provoked, Makkar’s supporters ran towards HSGPC leaders, but the police acted fast and resorted to a lathi charge to avert a clash. Supporters of both groups blandished swords. Later, Jhinda said the SDM had assured them that Makkar would go to the rest house and HSGPC leaders could hand over the memorandum to him there. But the police hoodwinked them and whisked away Makkar to the gurdwara as they waited at the rest house.

Lashing out at Makkar, Jhinda said the SGPC had set a bad precedent by making changes in the Nanakshahi calendar under pressure from the RSS. “The calendar was prepared after 15 years of hard work and released in 2003 and there is no justification in making changes on any pretext. This Makkar Calendar will be opposed by the Sikh community,” he declared.

Undeterred, Makkar said he would not be cowed by such threats and would make it a point to visit Haryana at least twice in a month in future.

Describing Jhinda as a “tout’ of the Congress, he asked the police to register a case against Jhinda and his supporters under Section 307 of the IPC for unsheathing swords with the intention to harm him.

He said he was in town for a religious function on the request of the local gurdwara and the attempts by the Jhinda group to disrupt his visit was reprehensible.

The SGPC has filed a police complaint against Jhinda and his men.

    • the whole 'your husband/wife is chosen for you'/sanjog thing is real, it's just that a lot of people end up marrying the wrong person. they did not end up with the person that was meant for them. my friend, you should marry someone who you feel a connection with and love. there are millions of sikh girls, i'm sure you can find someone who aligns with your sensibilities and who you can truthfully say that you love. sikhi does not say anything against love marriages. you can also be in a loveless arranged marriage which is a safe option b/c both families are more inclined to keep the union intact. i was one of those people who was like meh, i guess i'll just get arranged to some sikh. well i finally started dating for the first time this year and i'm getting married to someone that i love and cannot even imagine leaving. i think it's better to have lost & lost than never loved at all. unfortunately, a lot of people confuse love w/ looks & lust. a lot of men go for the fittest girl they can find and think they won the jackpot or something. in reality, your partner should be like an extremely loved best friend. there's a reason why it's a fact that the most stable and long-lasting relationships started as friendships.  i also think a lot of women are petty and divorce over small reasons, but there's other terrible things like high cheating rates as well. that's why the divorce rate in the west is high. be careful out there.
    • andrew tate praises sikhi too & likes sikhs. his brother also donated to sikh families iirc. they just like any "alpha" religion and tbh islam is the most "alpha" in their eyes. islam is very good at promoting that image. but imo a real alpha man doesn't command respect by beating up his wive(s) or forcing them to wear a burqa. a real man will have his woman listen to him w/o raising a hand or his voice, and command respect by being respectful. he leads by example and integrity. that's true masculinity. you get the idea. + yes, it's definitely true that islam is growing rapidly and making massive inroads. strength in numbers + belief will do that. but rlly it's just because of the birth rate. a lot of them are muslim b/c it's their "identity" just like how a lot of young sikhs will say they're "culturally sikh" or whatever. there just aren't billions of sikhs who lambast their identity everywhere and have strict and linear rules like in islam. besides, the reality is that islam and its followers are some of the most morally bankrupt. you can see all the weird trans rules in iran, bacche baazi in afghanistan, visiting brothels, watching p*rn, p*dophilia what goes on behind the scenes in countries like uae & qatar, etc, and come to your conclusions. you can google all the stats yourself and see which countries do the most of these ^.   
    • stop associating with hinduism, that's the absolutely worst thing you can do as a sikh. not sure if you noticed but the entire world looks down upon and spits at india & hindus, literally no one respects them and considers them weak and cowardly. literally 1+ billion of them but not perceived as a strong religion commandeering respect. 
    • you wrote a whole lot but told us nothing. what exactly did you do wrong to make you feel this way?
