The Punjab and Haryana High Court has ruled that the constitutional right of Sikhs to carry a Kirpan under Article 25 cannot be misused for committing crimes. The court clarified that if a Kirpan is used to attack someone, the accused cannot escape the Arms Act by citing religious rights. This decision came after a lower court in Kurukshetra had dropped Arms Act charges in an assault case, labeling the Kirpan solely as a religious symbol. The High Court overturned this, emphasizing that religious freedom does not permit criminal acts. https://punjabi.newsd5.in/%E0%A8%95%E0%A9%8D%E0%A8%B0%E0%A8%BF%E0%A8%AA%E0%A8%BE%E0%A8%A8-%E0%A8%A8%E0%A8%BE%E0%A8%B2-%E0%A8%B9%E0%A8%AE%E0%A8%B2%E0%A8%BE-%E0%A8%95%E0%A8%B0%E0%A8%A8-%E0%A8%B5%E0%A8%BE%E0%A8%B2%E0%A9%87/ #Creator program
