New Delhi, April 28

Namdhari Sikhs from Punjab, Haryana, Himachal Pradesh, Jammu and Kashmir and Delhi today took out a march from Mandi House to Jantar Mantar and held a rally demanding the arrest of the killers of matriarch Mata Chand Kaur, who was shot dead in Ludhiana district on April 4.

The Namdhari Darbar that led the march submitted a memorandum to Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh, saying that even 24 days after the murder, the Punjab Police had failed to trace the culprits.

Former Member of Parliament HS Hanspal, who led the march, said Namdharis across the country would take to the streets if the state police failed to arrest the killers.

Hanspal further said, “We do not need any SIT (already formed by the Punjab Government). We need action. We Namdharis will not tolerate injustice.”
