Golden Temple pic on ‘toilet seat’ condemned

CHANDIGARH: Punjab Chief Minister Amarinder Singh has strongly condemned toilet seats with the image of the Golden Temple being reportedly sold by a company on an online retail website.

He was apparently referring to a claim by a Sikh body in the US that doormats, rugs and toilet seat covers with the image of the Golden Temple were being reportedly sold by some sellers on Amazon.

The chief minister said it has hurt the religious sentiments of the entire Sikh community.

“Strongly condemn use of pictures of Sri Darbar Sahib with toilet seat by Philiphome Universal. It has hurt the religious sentiments of Sikh community worldwide. Demand immediate withdrawal of the seat by the company and an apology,” Amarinder Singh said in a tweet.

The chief minister also sought an apology by the company which used the image of the Golden Temple in a wrong way. PTI
