Many members of the Sikh community were offended by a fashion shoot at the Kartarpur corridor, in which a model can be seen posing for pictures, after which the Punjab police launched an investigation into the incident. The photoshoot was pointed out as offensive by an Independent Indian journalist, Ravinder Singh Robin.
He wrote on Twitter, “Modelling bareheaded for ladies' attire, in the premises of Gurdwara Sri Darbar Sahib at #KartarpurSahib in Pakistan, by a Lahorite woman has [severely] hurt the religious sentiments of Sikhs. Further, the pictures were uploaded on social media”. He also tagged Prime Minister Imran Khan and Pakistan’s Ministry of Religious Affairs in the tweet.

The President of the Delhi Sikh Gurdwara Management Committee, Manjinder Singh Sirsa, also reacted angrily to the fashion shoot. He wrote, “Modelling at Sri Kartarpur Sahib is Desecration. Pak Court issued arrest warrant of star who did dance video at Mosque; same must be done against this woman from Lahore as example of treating all religion at par”.

The shoot was shared on the Instagram page of a clothing brand named Mannat Clothing which later removed the post and apologised, “we accept our mistake that we should not have posted this content and we apologise to every single person who was offended by this”.
The Punjab Police in a tweet said that they have launched an investigation into the matter and will take legal action against all those found responsible.
