Who can change text in original Ginan?

Post by agakhani »

We are listening some Ginan which has been changed from it original text, for example "HARI" changed to "Ali" "Guru Dwar" changed to "Ghat "
e.t.c. I also noted that some HINDU devta's names are intentionally deleted from our ginan! who make this kind changes from original Text wiritten by our great Pirs? Can anybody change the way they want? or Tarika Board doing this job?

Only the Imam/Pir can make changes. No one else can.
