Netizens criticise Abhishek Bajaj for standing towards Darbar Sahib

One user commented, "Piche khade hone se nahi, rabb ki taraf peeth kar ke khade na ho. Aur sar cover hona chahiye." (He was not stopped to stand behind; he was asked to not turn his back toward God. Also, his head should be covered.
Another user said, "Piche khade hone se nahi, rabb ki taraf peeth kar ke khade na ho. Aur sar cover hona chahiye." (It's not about standing at the back, but do not stand with your back towards God. And the head should be covered.)
People have also been criticizing him for not covering his head, which is a mandatory practice while one visits the holy place. One user said, "Isne apne sir per rumaal kyo nhi lagaya wo bhi gurudwara mai" (Why doesn't he have a handkerchief on his head, that too in the Gurudwara).
