In
recent weeks the Sikh Nation have received shocking news that the
Shromani Gurdwara Prabandak Committee (SGPC) wish to do Saskaar of (to
cremate) the Saroop of Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji Maharaj which was shot
in June 1984.
These steps have caused uproar within the Sikh community who are
strongly against such action. The Saroop is invaluable due to the
significant history it represents.
In recent years cremation of Old handwritten Gutkeh Sahibs, Pothian
(Panj Granthi, Das Granthis), Saroops and historical texts have been
cremated in high volume. Before our eyes the history of the Sikh Nation
is being attacked and destroyed, leaving us with very little proof of
our real history.
It is well known fact that Sri Akaal Takht Sahib was looted in 1984,
with great losses of rare texts and relics from Guru Ji’s period.
Sevadaars from 1G UK were able to obtain three rare images of the
aforementioned Saroop which SGPC wish to cremate. These unreleased
images show the Saroop was directly shot at and the bullet hole still
remains. A harsh memory of 1984…
