7yGrievance for Registration No: PRSEC/E/2017/12772 The Karnataka government’s decision to ban the possession of swords, machetes and other sharp objects in Bengaluru seems to have triggered a controversy as it has reportedly hurt the sentiments of Sikhs. The notification passed on August 28, banned the acquisition, possession and carrying of arms without license specified in category V of the schedule I of the Arms Rules of 2016 in public places in the state capital. Among the articles listed in the notification are 'kirpans', a religious symbol for baptised Sikhs. It is one of the five articles that a Sikh should carry throughout their life, the notification is against the constitutional Right to Freedom of Practice and Religion, besides it Article 25 of the Constitution gives Sikhs the exemption to carry kirpan as an article of faith without registration, issue needs to be addressed at the earliest considering the “sentiments of Sikhs”, exempting this community to carry their traditional kirpans as per their faith and believes in their Sikh religion. Hence, Govt. of India hereby requested to exempt the Kirpan - sword, being part of five religious articles, amending the rules and regulations all around India, addressing this petition before the office of the President of India, whereas I belongs to Hindu community and fighting for religious rights of fellow Sikh community.
