Badals misusing SGPC for politics: Dhindsa
Amritsar, November 8
Several leaders led by rebel Rajya Sabha MP and SAD (Democratic) head Sukhdev Singh Dhindsa today gave a clarion call to boycott the SAD (Badal) leadership under whose tenure sacrilege and disappearance of ‘saroops’ of Guru Granth Sahib took place.
Dhindsa, along with his supporters and other Sikh outfits, organised a ‘pashchatap path’ (prayers for remorse) to express repentance over the misappropriation of ‘saroops’ at Gurdwara Attari Sahib in Sultanwind. Launching an attack on the SAD, he said the SGPC was being misused by the Badal family for political gains. “Earlier, sacrilege incidents occurred and now, 328 ‘saroops’ have gone missing. How could such a bungling take place under the nose of the SGPC? Where and on whose instance were these ‘saroops’ issued?” he said. — TNS
