2. My Take:

Prof Saluja Jee: This incident was reported in several Indian Newspapers, on 17 July 2011.

3. Quote: Date when the incident took place

COMMENT: Friday, 15 July 2011

4. Quote: Mane of gurdwara where it happened

COMMENT: Gurudwara SHAHEED Taru Singh. This Gurudwara is located in the famous Nau-Lakha Bazaar, in the city of Lahore, Pakistan.

5. Quote: Name and contact of a responsible representative of Gurdwara

COMMENT: Most Sikhs of Lahore do not want to be identified, for fear of recoil & repercussion, but Sardar Bishon Singh, who is President of Gurudwara Mission of Pakistan, either has or is planning on appealing to Supreme Court Justice, Ifthikar Chaudhary of Pakistan. Mr. Chaudhary is the same guy, who was Fired by the then Paki President, Pervez Musharraf.

6. Quote: Any other information that you think can help a newspaper in making a credible story.

COMMENT: Gurdwara Shaheed Bhai Taru Singh, in the Naulakha Bazaar of Lahore, was built to honour the memory of, and as a mark of recognition of the sacrifices of Bhai Taru Singh, who was executed in 1745, on the orders of the Rascal Mughal governor of Punjab, Zakaria Khan.

After partition, Paki government took over the Gurudwara, and the standing of the Sikh community of Lahore, has been going from bad to worse.

7. Worse may be in the making. Dawat-E-Islami, a proselytism group of Islam, claims that, this Gurudwara is located on the grave-site, of a fifteenth century Muslim saint, Pir Shah Kaku. They claim that the Gurudwara is Now a Mosque. The BIGOTRY of Dawat-E-Islami always comes through.
