SGPC demands ban of the film in Punjab
Meanwhile, Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee has demanded a ban on the film in Punjab a day before its release. SGPC on Thursday wrote a letter to Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann demanding a ban on Kangana Ranaut’s film. Demanding a ban, SGPC said that the image of Sikhs has been presented in a bad light in the film Emergency and history has also been tampered with in the film.
It is the responsibility of the government to ban the film- Dhami
SGPC chief Harjinder Singh Dhami expressed strong objection to Ranot’s film. Dhami said that if the film is released in Punjab, it will spread a lot of anger and resentment among the Sikh community. Therefore, it is the responsibility of the government to ban its release in the state.
There will be anger in Sikh community after the release of the film- Dhami
SGPC chief Dhami said that last year also he had written a letter on November 14 opposing the release of the film. This letter was written to the Chief Secretary of Punjab. Now in the new letter issued, the release of the film has again been opposed. SGPC chief Dhami said-
But it is sad that the Punjab government has not taken any major steps till now. If this film is released on January 17, 2025, it is sure to create anger and rage in the Sikh world.
Not only this, the Shiromani Gurdwara Management Committee has also accused the film of tampering with history. SGPC has condemned the character assassination of Khalistani Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale, who was killed in a military operation in 1984. Dhami said, ‘If the film Emergency is released in Punjab, we will be forced to strongly oppose it at the state level.’
