The Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) has alleged that the land mafia in Patiala is trying to illegally acquire the land of the Khalsa College Trust.

Jagir Kaur, SGPC president, today said the committee would not tolerate illegal acquisition of its land and as such, the matter would be raised with the Chief Minister as well. She alleged that the land mafia active here was trying to acquire the SGPC’s land with the help of political interference.

“We will meet Chief Minister Capt Amarinder Singh on the matter. I also urge the Punjab DGP to address the matter and direct police officials in Patiala to assist the SGPC in the same,” she said.

“The land mafia wants to illegally acquire a considerable chunk of the whole land,” she said. — TNS
