Akal Takht has given clean chit to Sufi singer Satinder Sartaaj, who was accused of making mistakes while reciting Zafarnamah in the Persian dialect.

A few weeks after the Persian version of “Zafarnamah – Guru Gobind Singh Ji” was released, a Delhi resident submitted a complaint to Akal Takht accusing the singer mispronouncing some words.

Subsequently, Akal Takht officiating Jathedar Giani Harpreet Singh deputed Gurpreet Singh Udhoke, a researcher, to look into the matter. Udhoke was found that Sartaaj had made any mistake while reciting the Zafarnamah, barring an ignorable mistake of misspelling a word in the subtitles.

The singer shared a video of Giani Harpreet Singh on social media, in which the latter could be heard saying that the accusation of wrong pronunciation was baseless.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
