    The Delhi Sikh Gurdwara Management Committee (DSGMC) on Monday decided to ban the entry of foreigners, who have not completed their 15-day stay in India, to all Delhi gurdwaras with immediate effect to check the transmission of coronavirus, said Manjinder Singh Sirsa, DSGMC president.


    He said only foreigners who have been in India for more than 15 days would be allowed to visit gurdwaras as a matter of precaution and preventive measures.


    Sirsa said, “Langars served by Sikh organisations at different places on the gurdwara premises will not be allowed henceforth. All devotees have been requested to take langar prasad from main langar halls only.”
