AMRITSAR SAHIB, Punjab—Interference of Hindu right wing force RSS in matters of Sikhs and its institutions is growing day by day. Taking over the control of Takht Sri Hazoor Sahib Nanded, BJP has appointed its MLA Tara Singh as president of management board of the Takht irrespective of the fact that Tara Singh had not even filed nomination for this post.

As per sources, Tara Singh is very close to the RSS. He was never a member of the board, and has never participated in religious activities ever at Takht Sahib. Due to close association with RSS, he is known to participate only in the political activities of BJP.

Opposing the appointment, SGPC president Avtar Makkar said that Maharashtra government led by BJP is interfering in religious affairs of Sikhs. Akal Takht Sahib Jathedar Giani Gurbachan Singh had also said that Tara Singh is not eligible for the post and directed to appoint a person with religious nature.

It is worth mentioning that building single Hindu nation in Indian union is sole motive of RSS for which it is active for around 100 years. To achieve its fascist goal, it is trying its best to incorporate Sikhs into Hindu religion. Following its unholy mission, the RSS is killing separate identity of Sikhs as well as that of other religious-ethnic groups in India.
