The true intentions of the Sangrur based committee  heading the construction of Sri Harmandir Sahib replica have now come to light after the recent mandate was passed from Akal Takht Sahib to modify the controversial design. 

The Akal Takht Sahib had passed a hukamnama putting a ban on further construction of the replica until its pool was filled up entirely and the four domes were destroyed, however the local congregation attached to Saadh Balwant Sehora has openly announced to counter the implementation of the hukamnama.

Close to a thousand followers of Sehora Saadh held a protest outside the replica to give a clear indication of their objection to the demolition. The protestors, many armed with sticks and other weapons, alleged that they stand united to stop the demolition process. The protestors claimed that they would safeguard the temple until the Akal Takht Sahib hukam is withdrawn.

The stance taken by Sangrur based followers of Sehora Saadh does not come as a surprise because the construction of the temple was always seen as a step to replicate the Harmandir Sahib. However, the recent protest had brought out the fact that deras of today do not have any allegiance to Guru Granth Sahib Ji and Sri Akal Takht Sahib.

The decision by Sri Akal Takht Sahib to fill the pool at Sangrur based Darbar Sahib replica was taken after bringing majority of Panthic bodies into confidence. This decision was in fact long awaited, however, due to false propaganda of these deras, the local residents are now openly opposing the Takht's edict.

According to the protestors, the decision to defend the Sangrur temple has come directly from the management committee, and they are willing to die for the ‘honor’ of the temple. While being questioned by the press, the protestors shared the common view that their Darbar Sahib is higher than any Akal Takht and they won’t back down until the hukamnama is overturned.

The Harmandir Sahib look alike that has been under construction in the Malwa region has once again become the center of controversy. In the past, Sikhs had filed complaints against the project at Sri Akal Takht Sahib. Now that the construction work is almost finished, the matter has finally received the due attention of SGPC leadership, despite the fact that in 1996 a HukamNama from Sri Takht Sahib was issued in relation to this controversy.
