The Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) has taken stern notice of the sale of holy sainchis (volumes) of Guru Granth Sahib and Gutka Sahibs by e-commerce website Amazon. A legal notice is being sent to the company by the SGPC, against such practice being carried on by Amazon, against the Sikh principles.
SGPC chief secretary advocate Harjinder Singh Dhami said that, “It is not right to sell Gutka Sahibs of Gurbani online due to respect for Gurbani. There is huge devotion and respect for Gurbani in the minds of the Sikh community and there is a wave of outrage in the minds of Sikhs over the sale of Gutka Sahibs online by Amazon.”

He said that this action was provocative of Sikh sentiments which could not be tolerated. He said that out of the five kakaars (articles of faith) blessed by Guru Gobind Singh Ji, the tenth Sikh Guru, the kirpan is an integral part of the Sikh life. He said that some hairless youths were making fun by wearing it and doing bhangra, which has hurt the Sikh sentiments.

He also demanded from the government to take stern action against the mischievous elements to prevent such incidents so that no one could do so again.
