TikTok Videos(ByteDance) Prohibited Inside Golden Temple
(Chd,Pb) TikTok Videos Banned Inside Golden Temple
The Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC), the apex religious body of Sikhs, on Saturday pasted posters inside the Golden Temple complex, warning devotees not to shoot TikTok videos inside the Harmandir Sahib
The move comes a day after Giani Harpreet Singh, head priest of the Akal Takht, the highest temporal seat of Sikhs, had said banning mobile phones inside the Golden Temple complex would have to be “thought over” if visitors continued to shoot TikTok videos inside the holiest Sikh shrine.
TikTok is a short-video platform which is extremely popular among youngsters globally, including India. Owned by China-based ByteDance, it has about 200 million users in India.
“We want all devotees to visit the Golden Temple without any hassle and are not in favour of imposing any such (mobile) ban, but the way the incidents of TikTok are surfacing, I think imposing the ban on carrying mobile phones inside (Golden Temple) will have to be pondered over in the future,” Jathedar had told reporters in Amritsar on Friday.
The Jathedar (head priest) had also pointed out that some of the devotees even argued with ‘sewadars’ (workers) upon being stopped from clicking photos inside the premises.
Photography and videography in the precincts of the Golden Temple have already been banned by the SGPC to avoid any “disturbance” to the spiritual atmosphere.
A few days ago, a TikTok video shot inside the temple by three girls with a Punjabi song playing in the background had gone viral on social media, prompting the SGPC to take a stern view.
It was the second such incident in a short span of time as in January, a police complaint was lodged against a girl for hurting religious sentiments of Sikhs after she shot a dance video inside the Darbar Sahib complex

मंत्री के अनुसार उनका देश गुरद्वारा दरबार साहिब के लिए और अधिक आंगुतकों को आकर्षित करने के लिए भारतीय श्रद्धालुओं को बिना पासपोर्ट के करतारपुर गलियारे में प्रवेश देने के एक प्रस्ताव पर विचार कर रहा है।
पिछले साल नवंबर में पाकिस्तान और भारत ने अपनी-अपनी सीमा के अंदर इस गलियारे के हिस्सों का अलग-अलग उद्घाटन किया था। यह गलियारा भारतीय सिख श्रद्धालुओं को पाकिस्तान में नारोवाल के करतापुर में पवित्र गुरद्वारा दरबार सिंह पहुंचने के लिए सबसे छोटा मार्ग उपलब्ध कराता है। करतारपुर साहिब में गुरूनानक देव ने अपने जीवन के आखिरी 18 साल गुजारे थे।
