NAKODAR:Even though Punjabi singer Gurdas Maan has posted a video on the social media platform offering an apology for his recent controversy but various Sikh activists on Tuesday began a dharna in front of the Nakodar police stations demanding registration of a case against him.
A Sikh activist Amrik Singh Ajnala said that Maan’s apology cannot be accepted.
Addressing a protest rally he said that Maan has committed a blunder knowingly whereas an apology is accepted for a mistake committed in ignorance.
Addressing the rally other leaders said that action against Maan should be taken as per law otherwise dharna will continue.
The singer had reportedly made a statement during an ongoing mela at Nakodar wherein he is heard saying that the chief of a dera and Nakodar Sain Laddi Shah is from the descendants of the third Sikh master, Guru Amar Dass.
Speakers demanded a case be lodged against the singer or else they would lodge demonstrations on the issue across Punjab. The members raised slogans against the singer and threatened to intensify stir if the officials did not take action against Maan.
They alleged that the speech of Maan could be a part of his pre-planned strategy and aimed at hurting the sentiments of the Sikh
