Five Held After Stones Target Gurdwara Manji Sahib Langar Hall

Police in Ludhiana registered a case against five people after stones were allegedly thrown at a gurdwara’s langar hall.

The gurdwara management said the incident began when staff turned away a visitor.

Manager Hardeep Singh said the visitor seemed suspicious and intoxicated.

He said the visitor later returned with others and three stones were thrown.

Afterward, claims spread that gurdwara staff had burned nearby homes where migrants lived.

Singh denied that staff had started a fire.

He said the migrants had already left the shanties and that the plots were privately owned.

The report says migrants in the area continue to eat langar at the gurdwara.
