The Shiromani Gurudwara Prabandhak Committee (SGPC) had objected on the Liquor advertisement where Cricket star Harbhajan Singh wearing his hair open. The SGPC had demanded an apology from ‘Bhajji’ for flouting the religious norms.
According to the SGPC, Religion does not permit Sikh men to let open their hair even at the time of eating.
SGPC President Avtar Singh argued,
Our Religious norms do not allow any Sikhs to keep their hair open. He is a role model for young Sikhs, he should think about the impact of his act on younger generation.
He suggested Bhajji to learn from Monty Panesar how to love the religious norms as he was born in the UK but never disrespected the religion.
However, Harbhajan Singh has apologised to the SGPC after the rage and said,
I am extremely sorry if I have hurt Sikh sentiments and religious faith. It was not an intentional act. I will take care of this in future.

Hello
For Harbhajan apology, he uses the word ”if” he makes a mistake, he shold that there is no ”if”, he sure did a mistake and being a public figure representing sikhs in India he should be more sensible and forget the greed of money and concentrate on sports.
That is all crap. He is an individual and has own right to express anything. More over if he is a celebrity it doesn’t mean that he should carry the burden of the whole community. This is a ll rubbish this explains why we as India and more over as indians are heading no where.
