Won't let Sikhs live in Nankana Sahib, angry mob shouts outside gurdwara | VIDEO
Hundreds of protesters swarmed the Nankana Sahib Gurdwara, the birthplace of Guru Nanak Dev, in Pakistan Friday evening and shouted inflammatory slogans. The protests were led by the family of Mohammad Hassan, the boy who allegedly abducted and converted Sikh girl Jagjit Kaur, who is the daughter of gurdwara's Pathi.
In a video, one of the protesters can be heard saying: "We will not let any Sikh live in Nankana Sahib and will change its name to Ghulaman-e-Mustafa." The protesters were seen raising slogans and saying that they were against the presence of the gurdwara there.
Another video showed how the mob kept surrounding the Nankana Sahib Gurdwara till late evening on Friday.
It was for the first time that Diwan or congregation at the Gurdwara Nankana Sahib was cancelled. The Akhand Path was to start ahead of Guru Gobind Singh ji's Gurpurab celebrations.
