After
the directions of Hon’ble Supreme Court to constitute a committee to
give suggestions for imposing ban of Jokes showing Sikhs in bad light
Manjit Singh G.K. the President of Delhi Sikh Gurdwara Management
Committee (DSGMC) had constituted a high level committee comprising of
five members and the said committee is headed by Justice H.S. Bedi a
Retired Judge of the Supreme Court. The directions of Supreme Court few
days ago had asked DSGMC to give suggestions in six weeks.
The
members of committee are as a follows – Justice Y.M. Iqbal a Retired
Judge of the Supreme Court, Pawan Kumar Verma Rajya Sabha Member, M.P.
Bejbaruah a Retired IAS officer who worked as Secretary in Government of
India, and Dr. Raghubir Singh another retired IAS officer who also
worked at the level of Secretary with Government of India.
At
the time of constituting high level committee Manjit Singh G.K.
appealed to the people specially Sikh Sangat to send their suggestions
on a designated email address dsgmc.guidelines@
Manjit
Singh G.K. also said that the DSGMC is not against any particular
person but against those who are showing, writing and circulating Jokes
showing Sikhs in poor light. He hopes that the five member high powered
committee would give its suggestions with in purview of Indian legal
system and also keep religious ethos and marayada in mind.
Manjit
Singh G.K. also said that some people were against the decision of
DSGMC to oppose these Jokes but the directions from Hon’ble Supreme
Court gave strength to the move and it got more support when the school
going children belonging to Sikh families who are feeling victimised due
to racial Jokes started approaching DSGMC.
