NEW DELHI: India on Monday summoned a senior Pakistan high commission official and lodged a strong protest over the abduction of the minor daughter of Pritam Singh, granthi of Gurdwara Panja Sahib. According to agency reports, the incident occurred recently in Attock district’s Hassanabdal town, which is home to the Gurdwara Panja Sahib.

“This has been going on for years where the Sikh community has been subjected to violence in Pakistan. Girls have been abducted and are subjected to forcible conversions. The whole country must be involved in this fight,” said MS Sirsa, who heads Delhi Sikh Gurdwara Management Committee, whose members protested outside the Pakistan mission on Monday.
