[QUOTE="Archived_Member16, post: 186857, member: 884"] [COLOR="Navy"][B][SIZE="5"]Fight for respect to Sikh symbols may suffer: Experts [/SIZE] Perneet Singh Tribune News Service Amritsar, June 30[/B] Even as the Sikh Gurdwara Parbandhak committee (SGPC) has ordered a probe into the assault on senior IAS officer Kahan Singh Pannu and “violation of Sikh maryada,” there is a feeling in Sikh circles that such instances adversely hit the community's fight for upholding the honour of its religious symbols (turban and kirpan) in foreign countries. Talking to The Tribune, Sikh scholar Ashok Singh Bagarian said: "If the Sikhs themselves don't show respect to the turban, with what face can they ask foreigners to do so?." He said Akal Takht should take note of the assault on Pannu and act tough instead of waiting for the state government to complete its probe into the matter. He said the 'complete silence” by the ruling SAD on the issue was jarring. Dr Rajwant Singh, chairman of the US-based Sikh Council on Religion and Education (SCORE), said even as Sikhs abroad were trying to convince the authorities abroad that the turban was a religious symbol and Sikh passengers should not be asked to remove their turban during frisking at airports, some Sikhs had not only removed Pannu’s turban but also uploaded the video footage of the incident on the Internet to portray him in a poor light. This was deplorable. "Whatever may be the provocation, what these Sikh yoths did with Pannu is totally unacceptable," he observed. Dal Khalsa leader Kanwarpal Singh said the state government could not be trusted on the matter and that Akal Takht should act on its own without waiting for the Punjab Government to conclude its inquiry. "It is for the Sikhs to understand that removing the turban portrays them in a bad light. “Even if Pannu had said something objectionable, instead of correcting him on the matter, removing his turban has sent a negative signal worldwide." Karnail Singh Peermohammed, All-India Sikh Students’ Federation (AISSF) chief, said the incident was a major setback to the community's fight for ensuring respect to its religious symbols, including the kirpan and turban, by governments of various countries. Kiranjot Kaur, SGPC member, however, was of the opinion that the Pannu incident was not likely to have any ramifications for the Sikhs living abroad. “It is, however, unfortunate that the Sikhs themselves are showing disrespect to the turban,” she added.
