Amritsar, Punjab: Ex-ragi Darshan has reiterated his stand that he will neither appear before the Singh Sahiban on January 7 nor will obey any “tankha” in the ongoing controversy on Dasham Granth. He alleged that politicalisation of religion was being done by the Badal family which would be most harmful for the Sikh quam. When asked about elections of the SGPC, ex-ragi Darshan said every Sikh obeying complete maryada of the panth should be allowed to participate in the elections and support Sarna Party.

New York, USA: Prof. Darshan Singh Ragi has recently surrounded himself in controversy after narrating a fictitious story which he falsely claimed appeared in Dasam Granth. While doing kirtan on 23rd August at Rochester, New York, Ragi said, “Guru Gobind Singh went to the den of a prostitute in the middle of the night. He removed his robe and sat on the bed of that prostitute who offered herself to him. Guru Gobind Singh got into dilemma that if he does not oblige her then she will create alarm and defame him but if he does develop conjugal relationship with her then the one who will be born out of that relationship will be a bharua (pimp)”.
