A Pakistani model has stirred controversy after she posed ‘bare head’ for a women’s clothing ad in the Kartarpur Gurdwara Darbar Sahib.
According to sources, the woman who runs ‘Mannat’, a ready-to-wear women’s online clothing store in Pakistan, got a photoshoot done in the Gurdwara Darbar Sahib complex in the recent past with the model posing bare head with her back towards the Gurdwara.
The owner of the online store also posted several ‘highly objectionable’ pictures of the bare head model on her social media account.
In the photographs, the woman is seen wearing a red suit posing for the camera without covering her head with the Gurdwara Darbar Sahib in the background.
This is noteworthy that the Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee, the single largest representative body of Sikhs, has pasted posters inside the gurdwara complex cautioning devotees to not shoot entertainment videos after a few of them were ‘caught’ shooting TikTok videos.
Reacting to the incident, former president of Delhi Sikh Gurdwara Management Committee Paramjit Singh Sarna told Zee News that this is a ‘highly objectionable’ act that has ‘severely hurt’ the Sikh religious sentiments.
