Sikh Protest: Ragi and Cronies Routed and Humiliated in Toronto

April 2, 2010

Police with Canine Units Patrol Kala-Afghani Lehar Center where Ragi was to visit.

Brampton, Toronto (KP) – Ex-communicated heretic, Ragi Darshan and his cronies suffered another major setback when a 3-day function in his Canadian hometown collapsed and was cancelled amidst the chaos and boisterous protests by the greater Toronto Sikh community.

The pro-Kala Afghani Sikh Lehar Center on Bramsteele Road in Brampton, commonly referred to as the “ਸਿੱਖ ਜ਼ਹਿਰ ਸੈਂਟਰ”, became the center of controversy again, after organizers decided to host a weekend function and invite the ex-communicated Ragi who is forbidden by Sri Akal Takht Sahib from utilizing the platforms of any Sikh institution.

Earlier, Sikh community members voiced their concerns to the Peel Regional Police. They had warned that if the pro-Kala Afghani Sikh Lehar Center allowed the controversial Ragi to perform Kirtan at the complex, it would be a serious violation of Sri Akal Takht Sahib Edicts; which could trigger a fierce backlash from the Sikh community.

Despite the warnings, the organizers went ahead and scheduled the function anyway. The function was to be initiated Friday evening, and conclude on Sunday.

By early evening on Friday, hundreds of protestors from the Sikh community, young and old, had gathered outside the Lehar Center. Their message was simple: they would not allow the ex-communicated Ragi Darshan on stage.

Protests have followed the Ragi everywhere in India and Europe since he was ex-communicated from the Sikh Panth in January of 2010. Fearing the wrath of the Sikh Sangat, the Ragi decided to not show up at the Brampton venue but left his supporters stuck in a conundrum.

Below are some highlights of the events from Friday.

  • Several Hundred members of Toronto's Sikh Community Unite Against Ragi an his Kala-Afghani Supporters
  • Fearing opposition, Ragi Darshan fails to show up at anti-Panthic venue
  • Kala-Afghanis Armed with Sticks and Rods Challenge and Assault Sikh Sangat
  • Main organizers, Manjit Mangat, Jagdish Mangat publicly humiliated by Sikh Activists
  • Police shield organizers from massive show of force by Sikh community

The pro-Kala Afghani Sikh Lehar Center is not new to controversy, earlier this year, one of its members, Harman Mann, had publicly rediculed Sri Jaap Sahib and challenged the Sikh community with his blasphemous remarks. Several Panthic sevadars accepted his 'challenge' and came over to the Lehar Center earlier this year and disciplined Harman Mann appropriately.

    Great service by sikhs of Toronto. It was timely act and courageous step by sikhs to check mate this heretic center and anti Sikh Ragi Darshan who has nothing else to do but roam around dividing Sikhs.

    If he has any shame he should sit at home and spend balance part of life quietly.

    By His Command, bodies are created; His Command cannot be described.
    By His Command, souls come into being; by His Command, glory and greatness are obtained.
    By His Command, some are high and some are low; by His Written Command, pain and pleasure are obtained.
    Some, by His Command, are blessed and forgiven; others, by His Command, wander aimlessly forever.
    Everyone is subject to His Command; no one is beyond His Command.
    O Nanak, one who understands His Command, does not speak in ego. ||2||

    Wow what a gift this bastards had, free health checkup, free ride in ambulance, free meeting with Police, free bandages, free stitches, free photos and publicity in news media, internet, new face lifts, some permanent marks on faces, new marks can be listed on passports, and overtime for Police Officers.

    WOW what a welcome gift to Prof: Darshan Singh colleagues, Anti Panthic should learn a lesson.

    In Punjabi there is a phrase '70 (satar) giya 72 (bahather giya). Therefore Darshan Singh lost his common sense. Best place for him is at Amritsar Mental Hospital, if AMH feel or won't accept him there, he can provide his information; I can have him shifted to Mental Hospital here in Napa City in California. I also will guarantee him that someone will kick his ##tt every day. Even Kala Afgana is guaranteed a free room there, so Prof: Darshan Singh won't feel lonely.

    Prof Darshan Singh would never learn his lesson the easy way. In 1992 he wanted to visit Fremont Gurudwara, he was warned that he is not welcome at Fremont Gurudwara. But ignoring such warning he and his followers [were ejected].

    Anti Panthic who are thrashed at Toronto don’t worry, Panth will make sure you have new face lift, you name will be in the Sikh history. When every your grandchildren see your picture with marks, they will ask their elders, how and why their grandpa, or great grandpa had a marks on their face. Your children or grandchildren will tell them by saying they got their __s whooped by Warrior of Sikh Panth.

    You idiot and bastard 'Anti Panthics' never learn your lesson easy way. Prof Darshan Singh, Kala Afgana, Mann Singh Pheowe wala, Amrik Singh who call himself a Karsewa Wala Baba, Daljit Singh of Chicago wala, you all are Anti Panthic. This is just a beginning. Sooner you learn is better for you all. Otherwise you all are going to face same consequences.

    Darshan Singh made you can make fool of yourself but you can not fool the Panth. When Panth was recovering from attack and riots in New Delhi. You were making "Neemo" movie.

    You sang those Dasam Bani Shaabd in that movie, now you tell the Dasam Granth is not Bani. You fool...

    Is there any defense fund being setup or good legal team arranged for the sikh who tried to keep AKAL TAKHAT MARIADA INTACT or completely will forget about him or his family, like we have done in past.

    ALL SIKHS PLEASE MOVE FORWARD IN THIS SEWA OF DEFENDING OUR PANTH. ALL SIKHS JUST REMEMBER ONE THING THAT NO MORTAL CAN QUESTION OUR GURU'S BANI, PERIOD. FIRST BECOME WHAT THEY WERE, WHICH FOR THESE MAYADHARIS AND DHARAM DESTROYERS IS IMPOSSIBLE.

    THE MOST IMPORTANT THING THAT SIKHS SHOULD REMEMBER IS "DO NOT QUESTION THE WORDS OF OUR GURUS " AND DO NOT LET ANYONE ELSE DO THAT TOO. RIGHT NOW DOING SIMRAN IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING SIKHS SHOULD BE DOING. CONNECT WITH THE WORDS OF OUR GURUS AND NOT QUESTION THEM, BECAUSE THE WORDS OF OUR GURUS IS THE WORD OF WAHEGURUJI HIMSELF.

    WAHEGURUJI KA KHALSA WAHEGURUJI KI FATEH.
