Sikhs Banned from Store for Wearing Kirpan

Big controversy in Manipur’s Zudio Store: Manager and guard stopped three Sikh men from entering, claiming their kirpan is a “weapon” and dangerous for families inside.

The Sikhs argued it’s a compulsory part of their faith and fully allowed under the Indian Constitution.

A fierce 40-minute argument followed until police intervened and the store staff finally apologised. Religious freedom or private safety? Tell us your take in comments!
