I feel like saying the same thing when I see monay come into the Gurdwara with hats on or beenies on. Alot of people just dont know better so its not really their fault. But their are many older people that know this is not respectful yet they still wear it. Its a complete shame.
I dont understand why Gurdwara committees do not put up signs that say " please do not wear hats or beenies inside the Darbar Sahib. Its hard to tell people to come inside with a dastar. What do we tell such people? Even some of the young kesdhari boys come to the Gurdwara with a patka that does not completely cover their head, so they are walking around the Gurdwara with the kes uncovered. This mini patka was very popular 10 years ago. Fortunately this fashoin has died out more.
