sacrilege

Now, when the Allahabad High Court has said that throwing bones and other non-veg food leftovers in the sacred Ganga River can hurt Hindu religious sentiments, the same Islamo-leftist cabal is selectively highlighting only the Muslim accused getting bail part.

With two similar bills still pending presidential assent since 2018, the Mann government’s move reopens a volatile debate in Punjab, where past lynchings over alleged sacrilege have occurred without evidence or due legal process.

NIhang Sikhs claimed that sacrilege happened pointing towards Nishan Sahib and Palki Sahib being placed at the set. A symbolic 'Swaroop' of Sri Guru Granth Sahib was also placed on the set. Three Granthis participated in the shooting.

Police said Bakshish Singh allegedly torn few pages of Shri Guru Granth Sahib and tried to run away from the Gurdwara.

Senior police officers hurried to the scene, where the accused had barricaded himself inside the Chaura Khooh Gurudwara premises.

The nod came after the Special Investigation Team (SI), probing the case, filed a supplementary chargesheet in a local court along with the prosecution sanction order.

'If we had retaliated, things would have gone awry. We respected Guru Granth Sahib,' Senior Superintendent of Punjab Police Harpal Singh Randhawa said

Nihang Sikhs objected to presence of both idols of Hindu deities and the Guru Granth Sahib in Sindhi temples, and removed the idols

This stricter laws on blasphemy is only a sure shot way to increase and encourage lynchings and justify it by 'sacrilege' or 'blasphemy'.
