The alleged attacks on two Sikh brothers near the holy site of Nankana Sahib in Punjab province of Pakistan were taken up by members of the Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) on Tuesday, with Advocate and SGPC President Harjinder Singh Dhami condemning the incident.

“Even before this, there have been many attacks on members of the Sikh community in Pakistan. Neither is an action taken by the accused or are related issues taken seriously,” Dhami said.

He has also sought intervention from the Centre on the matter. “To ensure the safety of Sikhs, the Modi government should hold talks with the Pakistan government at a diplomatic level,” he added.
