Sikhs stage protest

NEW DELHI, OCT. 7. The Delhi Sikh Gurdwara Management Committee (DSGMC) observed Sunday as ``black day'' to protest against the objectionable references in class XI history textbook even as the Human Resource Development Minister, Dr. Murli Manohar Joshi, directed the NCERT to delete them.

``The black day is observed to register our anger and protest the book in which objectionable things were written about ninth guru, Teg Bahadur Saheb,'' a DSGMC statement said.
