NSCS Chairman requests Akal Takhat jathedar to ensure Lakhbir Singh’s bhog as per Sikh Rehat Maryada

Chandigarh, Oct 18 (UNI) National Commission for Scheduled Castes (NCSC) Chairman Vijay Sampla on Monday wrote a letter to acting jathedar of Sri Akal Takhat Sahib Giani Harpreet Singh and requested him to ensure that Lakhbir Singh's bhog is performed as per Sikh Rehat Maryada (Sikh code of living).
In the letter, Sampla said, “You must be aware of the brutal murder of Lakhbir Singh, a Scheduled Caste Sikh from Punjab, at the farmers’ protest site at Singhu near the Delhi-Haryana border. You must have also got the information that some people, especially the members of Satkar committee, objected to the victim’s cremation as per Sikh rituals, citing sacrilege of Sri Guru Granth Sahib.”
“However, in the viral video, the culprits and other people can be seen saying that Lakhbir Singh had disrespected the Sikh holy book but in reality, no video has surfaced on the social media or news organizations which can prove that Lakhbir Singh did the sacrilege.”
