Amritsar: Mohammad Mustafa, the former DGP husband of Congress candidate from Malerkotla in Punjab and advisor to Cabinet minister Razia Sultana and advisor to Punjab Congress unit president Navjot Singh Sidhu, has often been in the news for his controversial statements. Now he has made a statement about Shree Guru Granth Sahib, on which controversy has started. Mohammad Mustafa, during an election meeting, called Shree Guru Granth Sahib a book and told the Muslim community present there, "I pray to Allah that the Muslim community also gets the same feeling as Sikhs do anything for their book."
Now, the Shiromani Gurudwara Prabandhak Committee (SGPC) has objected to this statement of Mustafa. Advocate Harjinder Singh Dhami, president of SGPC, has asked Mohammad Mustafa and Navjot Singh Sidhu to apologise to the Sikh community for hurting religious sentiments. He said that, in Sikhism, Shree Guru Granth Sahib is not a book, but it is the form of the Guru and in such a situation, the SGPC has a strong objection to comparing the Guru with a book. Harjinder Singh Dhami said 'Our 10th Guru Shree Guru Gobind Singh had conferred guruhood on Shree Guru Granth Sahib. Shree Guru Gobind Singh had instructed the Sikh community to follow the holy book as a Guru. In such a situation, telling the living guru a book reflects the small mentality of Mohammad Mustafa. His statement has hurt the sentiments of the Sikh community.'

Earlier, Sidhu's advisor Mohammad Mustafa was booked by the police for making a provocative speech in Baghwala Mohalla of Malerkotla on January 2022. The video of Mustafa's speech threatening Hindus had also gone viral on social media. In that video, Mustafa had said, "I swear to Allah that I will not allow them to be burned." I am a casual soldier. I am not an RSS agent who will enter the house out of fear. If they do this again, I swear to God, I will enter the house and kill them. Today I'm just warning them. I am not fighting for votes, I am fighting for the community.
