Sikh man denied entry at posh Delhi restaurant over his attire
A Sikh man was allegedly denied entry into Delhi's posh restaurant, We Qutub, allegedly due to his religion and attire. The man has been identified as Param Singh, a Sikh who took to Instagram, accusing the staff of misbehaving with him and his friend on Saturday night. In the Instagram story, he wrote, "Today, later in the evening, I along with my friends, was not allowed inside the premises on the grounds of being a Sardar and having an untrimmed beard, with a reason saying that I am not cool enough as per the other Hindu gentry."
The post also mentioned, "Even to an extent that my female friends were spoken badly too with a crass attitude from the guy at the counter." He accused the restaurant management of misbehaving with customers, displaying racist behaviour and hypocrisy.

"The guy at the counter said that we don't let Sikh people enter the lounge and that's their motto, to which he later rectified and said that he didn't like my pink shirt", the post said.
