apparently this is one of the pardaans on a trip to india to collect Maharaj's Palki.

Sad.... Very sad... no shame and no respect....

[singh135]

what can u say? chairs in langar hall, chief representative (pardhan) of Gurudwara drinking alcohol, funny balloon stars in empty Gurudwara with photos taken of empty hall with noone doing seva Guru sahib di.

Jatt nu javani hale chari nahi? Pehndu mentality in the heart of western cities. Congrats.

"jatt nu javani hale chari nahi" ? :blink2: No offence Singh135, but the gurdwara in question and the people in the photographs are of the 'bhatra' grouping from Delhi. A 100% urban community who delight in calling Sikhs from rural backgrounds 'pendhu'. I've stated here before, I have been to a bhatra gurdwara . Inside the darbar hall itself they have a 'pardah' between males and females. Both myself and my wife were disgusted enough to leave within minutes of arriving. In front of our Guru ji these women were covering their faces from their father in laws etc. Being there had no resemblence to any kind of Sikhi I know. But........now that it is revealed how this gurdwara in question is a bhatra gurdwara just watch how nobody here will say anything against them......and, unlike Dudley, no Sikhs will confront them about the blatant beadbi taking place there. Just watch how the whole issue gets quietly swept under the carpet.

Leeds Sangat, wake up, get out of your comfort zones and go sort the antics of this committee out. Stop relying on outsiders to sort out your local issues. There's enough chardi kala Singhs in Leeds, they should be able to do something about this!

Request, please do not look at all Bhats with one eye.

There are some Bhats who are dodgey, and there is many Chardikala ones too.

I totally agree that the pardha thing is dodgey.

I am not agreeing with this Gurughars behaviour.

Please do not twist my words.

:D

do what exactly? the people who run the gurudwara do not listen to anybody, especially if you aren't 'one of them'.

[chatanga]

if they dont listen, talk to members of the congregation who will.

Never mind the pardhaan i saw the granthi from a bhatra gurdwara drinking whiskey, at teh gurdwara he had a kirpan on, at the wedding party after he wasnt wearing it.

This issue was bought to the attention of the congregation today and the picture is still up there...

Looks like it's no longer on the Gurdwara website. Have you approached Singhs from the Chapel Town Gurdwara to address the issues around this committee?
