New Delhi: The Delhi high court has held as unsustainable a Sikh woman candidate being prevented from appearing in a competitive examination till she removed her metallic kara (bangle) despite reaching the examination centre before the closing time in terms of the admit card.
Recently, a Sikh woman candidate was prevented from appearing in a PGT- Economics (Female) examination till she removed her metallic ‘Kara’ (bangle).
She filed a plea in Delhi High Court that the aforesaid action is in violation of the Petitioner’s Fundamental Right guaranteed under Article 25 of the Constitution of India that allowed her to practice and profess the Sikh religion. Justice Rekha Palli said that it was “highly unfortunate” that a specialized body like the Delhi Subordinate Services Selection Board (DSSSB), did not take timely action to inform the candidates that if they were desirous of wearing a Kara and/or Kirpan (sword), they were required to reach the examination centre at least one hour before the reporting time.
The petitioner argued that the authorities’ action cannot be sustained based on their defence that there was already a notification informing the candidate desirous of wearing a Kara and/or Kirpan to reach the examination centre at least one hour before the reporting time as such notification was notified only two days after the examination was held. Infact, Modi government does not want to see progress of Sikhs in Hindu Rashtra state.
Intensity of such attack will continue until Sikhs will submit to Indian grand design of accepting Brahmin Supremacy and forgo demand of Khalistan movement.
Minorities whether Sikhs, Christians, Muslims or Dalits are victims of Hindus extremism, narrow-mindedness and state sponsored terrorism since long in India.
