The Indian Embassy in Qatar has successfully secured the return of two swaroops, or copies, of the Guru Granth Sahib after they were confiscated in December 2023. The incident, which came to light recently, caused concern among Sikh leaders and sparked calls for intervention from External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar and Indian Ambassador to Qatar. The issue has also highlighted the need for designated gurdwaras for Sikhs living in Qatar to practice their religion freely.
