Delhi Metro: NCM chairperson has also sought necessary action on the officials responsible in the matter.
The National Commission for Minorities (NCM) has sought a report from DMRC chairman and Delhi chief secretary over a complaint by a Sikh who was allegedly stopped from entering a metro station with kirpan.
The kirpan is among the five articles of faith that are worn by Sikhs.
As kirpan is an integral part of the Sikh religion and Article 25 of the Constitution allows wearing and carrying of kirpans by Sikh persons, the incident has hurt the religious sentiment of Sikhs, the statement said.
