Sikh Sewadar Dies From Hindu Mob Attack On Gurdwara Sahib

[SaRpAnCh]

New Delhi (KP) – There is darkness everywhere, blood spatters and an unconscious body on the floor. The location is New Delhi, Capital of World’s largest Democracy – India, where a gang of street thugs have raided and pillaged a Gurdwara Sahib building and viciously beaten an innocent Sikh man to death.

This scene is not from 1984, but from 2007. Neither is it a part of a shooting of a Bollywood Movie. The deadly rampage took place at Gurdwara Sri Guru Singh Sabha in Baljit Nagar, New Delhi. On the night of November 22nd, a gang of local thugs, namely, Sunny Dutta, Sundeep Dutta, Naresh Dutta, Babli Dutta, forcefully entered the Gurdwara Sahib after breaking its main door where they severely beat a Sikh sewadar, Bhai Prabhjit Singh, and afterwards destroyed a substantial amount of Gurdwara Sahib property.

Bhai Prabhjit Singh was so critical wounded that he could not regain consciousness after the attack and was admitted at the Safdarjung Hospital in New Delhi and put under an artificial ventilator since he could not breathe on his own. Such were the extent of his injuries that on December 3rd, Bhai Prabhjit Singh finally succumbed to them and passed away without regaining consciousness.

According to the Delhi Sikh Gurdwara Management Committee (DSGMC), the Dutta group that attacked the Gurdwara Sahib belongs to a notorious family in Delhi, which has several criminal cases pending against its family members.

The DSGMC complained that although the Patel Nagar Police Station has reportedly registered a case against the Duttas, it has not included charges for the attack on the Gurdwara Sahib. Such attacks on religions places and of hurting religious sentiments are punishable under Sections 295 and 295-A of Indian Penal Code.

Local Sikh organizations, along with the DSGMC have demanded that the criminals of the Dutta family who are responsible for the murder of Bhai Prabhjit Singh and sacrilege of the Gurdwara Sahib be punished to the fullest extent of the law.

Bhai Prabhjit Singh’s funeral and last rites were performed on December 4th, with a procession from Gurdwara Sri Guru Singh Sabha in Baljit Nagar to the local cremation grounds.

Pictures of Shaheed Bhai Prabhjit Singh and Gurdwara Sahib Sacrilege are being provided below, along with an affidavit published by Delhi Shiromani Gurdwara Management Committee.

It's a family mob of criminals, the Dutta family. What happened was not on and justice needs to take it's course. There needs to be support set up for the shaheed's family. But why does the headline need to also highlight a "Hindu" mob? Why doesn't panthic weekly provide us with a route to getting funds to the shaheeds family instead of focusing on headlines like this.

But why does the headline need to also highlight a "Hindu" mob?

Because those who call such people "Hindu" probably accept Badal or KP Gill as a "Sikh".

What do you expect in kaliyug? Everything to get better and brighter. Kaliyug is meant to get worse, as it says in Dasam Granth. If we want to be prepared for the worse; to do shaheedi when the times come. Then we carry on with our physical training, martial training etc. Also, attach ourselves to the bigger picture; see beyoud ourselves, which is by japping naam, a link to the ultimate reality God and Guru Ji. Because when we do that Guru Ji will tell us what we need to do. Just like Shaheed Bhai Fauja Singh and Shaheed Bhai Avtar Singh Ji knew that they would have to do shaheedi before the time came in 1978. These Gursikhs knew this because they connected themselves with a higher power - this is how we prepare ourselves, by communicating with the higher power; the language we speak in with the higher power is NAAM. Otherwise we're just insects; we won't be heard or be strong enough when the time comes.
