Instagram influencer booked for performing yoga inside Golden Temple

The Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) filed a police complaint against an Instagram influencer, Archana Makwana, for performing yoga inside the Golden Temple in Amritsar.

The action was taken after some visuals of Makwana performing yoga on the premises of the Golden Temple on International Yoga Day, June 21,



went viral on social media.

Pertinently, the Golden Temple also known as Sri Darbar Sahib is the most sacred place for Sikhs.

The SGPC, which is the top apex body that manages gurdwaras across India has accused Makwana of hurting Sikh religious sentiments and disregarding the sanctity of the holy site.
