CHANDIGARH:BJP national general secretary Tarun Chugh today questioned the silence of Punjab Pradesh Congress Committee president Navjot Sidhu over the incident of sacrilege of Guru Granth Sahib in Pakistan.
While condemning the incident which happened at Gurdwara Shri Guru Harkrishen Sahib in village Kot Meer Badan Khan Bajarani in Kashmore district in Sindh Chugh demanded the Pakistan government to take stringent action against the culprits. He said it was disgraceful and hurting the religious sentiments of the Sikhs and the Hindus as the Guru Granth Sahib was not only disrespected while Rs 1.5 lac PKR was also stolen from the donation box.
Chugh said the minorities in Pakistan were not only unsafe and threatened but also living in extreme humiliation.
Chugh wondered why Sidhu has been quiet on such issues though he kept singing praise of Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan claiming him to be his friend. " What kind of friendship is this if Sidhu cannot protect the interests of the Sikhs in Pakistan?, Chugh asked.
Sidhu should in fact Pakistan Army chief Bajwa, whom he hugged very fondly, to protect the religious shrines of the Sikhs and Hindus in Pakistan.
Chugh said Sidhu should atop playing pranks on Punjab and bring some seriousness in his task.
