Sikhs must unite for SGPC: Sukhbir

Natheha (Talwandi Sabo), Aug 6
Sikhs, for once, need to get above their habit of ‘dhadebandi’ (factionalism) and unite on the issue of SGPC’s supremacy over the HSGMC.

This was stated by Deputy Chief Minister Sukhbir Singh Badal talking to this correspondent on the sidelines of a campaign for SAD candidate from Talwandi Sabo Jeet Mohinder Sidhu, here today.

“Sikhs, by nature, are habitual of attaching themselves to groups as a part of their daily lives. They all need to come on a common platform and understand the delicate situation in which attempts were being made to finish the universally accepted parliament (Akal Takht) of the Sikhs under the SGPC’, he said.

“We need to understand that sustained efforts have been made since Independence to weaken the Sikhs. Years of turbulence during terrorism followed by a poor resettlement package told the real story. Taking away the supremacy of the SGPC, exercised through the Akal Takht, was the last attempt by an already crumpled Congress. The way the once supreme Congress party has been washed out in Uttar Pradesh, Bihar and Gujarat, it should not expect any magic in Haryana, now”, he added.

So, in short, the failings of the SGPC should be blamed on Congress.

Badals are manipulative and run state machinery for their own benefits. But who will listen? They are very close to centre. Singhs outside Punjab can't do anything. To change the system you need to be part of the system otherwise you are branded as a traitor.

Hmm Akaal Takht under the supremacy of SGPC???

SGPC is formed by an act of India Government and is controlled by political parties. Seems like Shkhibir Badal is saying that Akaal takht should be controlled by the political partied accepted by Government of India. This makes Sikhi, the only major religion being controlled by a state - that too by a state (India) which is controlled by people of other religion, the theology of which is distinctly different from that of Sikhs.

Is Sukhbir Badal now saying that the Sikhs all over the world should obey SGPC which is formed by Indian Government and controlled by the laws of India ?

What right has SGPC to dictate the views of Indian State or political party controlling SGPC to the Sikhs who are citizens of other countries or the ones living in foreign countries?

Let Akal Takht (and other takhts under Akal Takht) be free of SGPC.

Let Akaal Takht develop as an independent body that can guide the Sikhs all over the world free of the interference from Indian Government, biased Indian Judiciary, or an Indian political party.

Initially it was an independent body, until some bright spark had an idea of creating an ubiquitous Sikh body in the 20's.

While Akal Takht should be independent of SGPC, but SGPC should also be independent of all political parties including Akali Dal.

Furthermore, with in Akal Dal there should be a clause stating that a son(or daughter) cannot succeed his father's position in order to keep in check those who have tendencies of turning the party into their family's property like badal did

Agree it is not the SGPC that is the problem it is who controls it. Basically most of our Sikh organizations/ institutions have Badal controlling them as a proxy for the BJP/ RSS. Some others are or have been controlled by the Congress as was Santa Singh and the Nihangs. The SGPC and Akal Takht need to be free or we will end up with the Mahants of pre 1920 that nearly caused the Sikhs to become Hindus.

The Sanatan group try to make out that everything was fine before the formation of the SGPC. Just a few facts of what it was like before the Akali movement ( real Sikhs at that time).

The Akal Takht Jathedhar in 1919 gave a Siropa to General Dyer after the Amritsar Massacre and made him a honoury Sikh even though Dyer said he smoked and could not be a Sikh.

At Nankana Sahib the Mahant carried out rapes of visitng pilgrims. He massacred non violent Sikhs when they tried to remove him.

Idols were introduced into many Gurdwaras including the Darbar Sahib. On their removal the Mahants built the Durgiana Mandir in Amritsar to copy the Darbar Sahib and continue Sanatan activities.

The SGPC was created to ensure that all Gurdwaras followed Sikh principles. The Sanatan Nihangs attack the SGPC because of this.

However today the SGPC has been hijacked by the Badal clan acting in co operation with the BJP/RSS.That is the problem.

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
