The Akal Takht Jathedar

Giani Gurbhachan Singh condemned protests by

Sikhs overseas against the Akali Dal. He said,

Overseas Sikhs are ignorant on issue of Punjab

and should come to Punjab and see what the

government has done.

He further added, we shouldnt protest but

unite.

The Jathedar has also faced protests for his

silence on Bapu Surat Singh Khalsas hunger

strike during his visit to Italy and New York.

Badal's chumcha has made the post of Jathedar of Akal Takht appear irrelevant to the Sikhs now and this will be that <banned word filter activated>'s biggest legacy. He and Badal are now scared that what has happened abroad to their chumchay abroad could happen in Punjab. Once that happens then Badal and his Akali dal is finished.

I hesitate to speak ill of the jathedar of a great Sikh institution, but this screams, "Bought and paid for," to me.

Why hesitate, not like he did great deeds and the people gave him his position. The position means nothing now.

Well, I hesitate due to respect for the position he occupies rather than the man himself. It's strange, because I've heard his katha on a few occasions, and it's rather good to be fair. But then away from that he's clearly a "company man" and I wonder, "You can't be so ignorant or unaware of what's going around you, Jathedar Sahib, and with the knowledge you have of Sikhi, how can you sit on the greatest Sikh stages and purport to be a vessel for disseminating the Truth to the sangat?"

    • Been so much nindya and attacking Shastarvidiya since the 2000s, however if we look at gatka now it's still mostly as poor and poorly taught as it was back then, still morris dancing moves and still behzti moves in BBC shows about sikhi and vaisakhi. If people were going to attack shastarvidiya, wouldn't have made sense to improve gatka instead and make it more effective? Additionally, the Nihang Singh presence has improved greatly now, and the cracks within the the SGPC and affiliated jatha jathebandis are showing more greatly as panth becomes more knowledgable with dasam bani and itihas day-by-day, so much gyaan which was lost within panjabi sikhs during colonial times. In the 2000s, the groups were able to talk down this bani and  gyaan by associating it with  RSS and hindus, brahminwaad etc. Not working so well now is it? However with gyaan it would be also good for us to try and preserve our martial arts and keertan vidiya as well! More and more crazy keertan videos are coming out from jatha members that are being made fun of and making sangat annoyed and upset, on tiktok and instagram reels.

Being from Punjab, almost every Sardaarji i know (amritdhari or not) sleeps/showers with their hair uncovered. I don't think Guru Sahib asked us to wear Dastar to sleep and I don't think it is in SRM.   The idea of "keski being worn to sleep" is cos in Bollywood films (Bachna Ae Haseeno) Sikh characters usually tie a gol parna when sleeping since the actor's usually Hindu. So they gotta cover his head somehow or he'd have cut hair. Same reason Diljit wore a pagg to bed in the El Sueno vid. Only time they didn't do that was in Gadar with Sunny Deol which just looked odd tbh   What in the world? What sikh or even a decent human would base their knowledge of their culture or religion on a movie industry, that too Bollywood?  Believe me, no sikh ever said, I must cover my head becasue an actor did so in a movie. I've been doing it all wrong, I must start covering mh head because the sikh in that movie did.  Just because every panjabi and sardaar you know, does something, also doesn't make it right..  Follow the guru. And if you have a medical condition, then exemptions can be made.  Just admit it, because of my medical condition, I am not able to follow this rehit. Why are you getting everyone else to drop to your level?
    • Wasn't Guru Arjan Dev's martyrdom on amd always commemorated on 6th June? How come it was 30th May?  Just like 6th June 84, where the likes of Terrorists like Indira Gandhi chose to attack Darbar Sahib where many many innocent Sikhs would suffer, as they went to commemorate Martyrdom of Maharaj. 
    • best thing is to follow the Sikh Rehat Maryada and use common sense for gray areas. Anything outside of that's irrelevant tbh that code is what Guru Gobind Singh Ji and the 5 Pyaare agreed on when creating Amrit in 1699
