Amritsar, September 6
In a first, Akal Takht Jathedar Giani Harpreet Singh on Sunday remembered prominent human rights activist Jaswant Singh Khalra on his 25th martyrdom day. The family members of Khalra and rights activists initiated a ‘sehaj paath’ at a gurdwara here.
Recognising Khalra’s contribution for the Sikh community, Giani Harpreet Singh read out a ‘message’ from Takht Damdama Sahib. Khalra never cared for his life while launching a crusade against the government for Sikhs killed under conspiracy. — TNS
