Another attempt to communalise electoral landscape by defaming Hindus is falling flat on its feet. As expected, the man lynched for allegedly committing sacrilege inside Gurudwara turned out to be mentally-challenged.
Man was lynched for alleged Sacrilege
Recently, in Kapurthala district of Punjab, a man was lynched by locals. He was accused of disrespecting Nishan Flag, a symbol of holiness in Sikhism.
According to details available in the public domain, staffs working for Gurudwara had claimed that they saw a man disrespecting Nishan flag. According to them, once they felt that something was wrong, they started to chase him. However, since there was no electricity, they could not track him.
Locals took law into their own hands
Later, when the electricity supply was restored, they nabbed him. The staff of Gurudwara, in fact, recorded a video with the man in the background. In the video, the staff is seen claiming that the nabbed man was there to insult the flag.
As soon as police reached the spot, they caught hold of the accused. The locals then asked the police to interrogate the accused in front of them.

Hoards of people gathered around the scene, and soon police were forced to backtrack. However, a mass gathering of people had taken the accused under their control and started to beat him. Within a matter of time, the man was beaten to death in front of the police.
Investigations reveal that man went in with the intention to steal
Now, new investigations have revealed that the man was just a poor hungry person looking to feed himself. He was mentally unstable as well. Moreover, police also mentioned the fact that they did not find a shred of evidence, which could prove that he had committed any sacrilege whatsoever. All symbols like the Nishan Sahib flag and Guru Granth Sahib Ji were found intact. Police clearly said that the man had entered into Gurudwara premises with an intention to steal and not disrespect Sikhism.
Politicians and other elements tried their best to run their agenda
As reported by the TFI, this was the third incident of mob justice in a span of one week. Various kinds of speculations were raised regarding the lynching as well as sacrilege attempts. Politicians had also tried to bake their political bread on the issue. Punjab Chief Minister had started to visit Gurudwaras to issue public statements against sacrilege, but he did not condemn the lynching. Various other politicians had also jumped in.
Not just politicians, foreigners of Indian origin had also jumped in claiming that Hindus are trying to trample Sikhs in India.

Whenever any untoward incident happens to anyone belonging to religion other than Hinduism, liberals directly start to point fingers at Hindus. Though, this time Hindus are quickly relieved of gaslighting attempts, it won’t always be the case. Police investigations are more often than not a long and tenuous process. It is high time that liberals in the public domain should stop politicising inhuman savagery.
You see in India no Laws are followed or applied on minority community for whatsoever the crime they commit but not only existing laws but also no-existent laws and rules will always be applied unilaterally on only one major community and in fact this is blatantly biased practice is fully endorsed by the Indian judiciary and courts always takes suo motu interest on in applying dictatorship policies on Hindu community and yet most gullible Hindus voluntarily accepts and supports all kinds of atrocities and abuses without questioning.
So tell me whom should we blame for this biased practice – Indian judiciary, courts? politicians? or Hindu community for not standing up to protect their basic rights?
Same Sikhs opened their Nada to Talibani Muslims in Afghanistan. Tch tch, if this was so insulting to see that someone got killed without any proof, all that happened in Afghanistan to Sikhs, Gurdwaras, Books doesn’t evoke any anger in Sikhs?
