Sikh jatha leaves for Pakistan to celebrate Gurpurab amidst Taliban threat


AMRITSAR: A Sikh jatha left for Pakistan to celebrate the birth anniversary of first Sikh master Guru Nanak Dev amidst Taliban threats of targeting Indians to avenge the hanging of Pakistani terrorist Ajmal Kasab.

All the pilgrims demanded from both Indian and Pakistan governments to ensure that they were provided foolproof security while visiting gurdwaras and market places in Pakistan.

A Sikh devotee Kirpal Singh said, "We have been reading about Taliban threats and are concerned about our security during pilgrimage in Pakistan".
He said he believed that the Indian government would have taken up the issue of jatha's security with Pak government and added that it was their prime concern.

Another pilgrim Swaran Singh said, "I don't want any untoward incident to happen during our religious visit to Pakistan and hope that we will get full security during our stay in Pakistan."
Notably Jathedar of Akal Takht Giani Gurbachan Singh had already directed the single largest representative body Shiromani Gurdwara Parabandhak Committee (SGPC) to take up the issue of security of jatha with government.

Meanwhile, there was much uproar over poor arrangements to receive the jatha at Attari railway station, as the devotees had to jostle to enter the platform.
