Akal Takht Jathedar urges Dhami to withdraw resignation
Akal Takht Jathedar Giani Raghbir Singh has appealed to SGPC president Harjinder Singh Dhami to withdraw his resignation.
The development comes a day after the SGPC convened a meeting of its executive body in which members preferred to keep pending his request to resign from the presidentship of the Sikh body.
The Jathedar also asked Dhami to re-join as convener of the seven-member committee constituted to supervise the new membership drive of the Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD). Ever since the four-term president Dhami resigned on February 17, he is being urged to withdraw the resignation.
Dhami’s resignation came days after Akal Takht Jathedar Giani Raghbir Singh, through a Facebook post uploaded on February 13, condemned the dismissal of services of Giani Harpreet Singh as the Jathedar of Takht Damdama Sahib by the SGPC.
