He stated that all due respect and sanctity of the position he held would be taken into consideration if necessity arise to inquire from him.
Giani Gurbachan Singh had issued a statement that he would not go to anybody for clarification, but certainly would welcome the SIT members at his place if they wanted to procure any information.
