The Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) today expressed anguish over large-scale registration of bogus voters for Sikh body poll.

SGPC president Harjinder Singh Dhami held a meeting at the SAD headquarters under the chairmanship of SAD working president Balwinder Singh Bhunder and Sukhbir Badal. The meeting put on record the large-scale manipulation in making voter list for the SGPC elections.

Sukhbir said party delegation would meet Surinder Singh Saron, who is the Chief Commissioner of Gurdwara Election Commission, tomorrow in this regard.

“We will also apprise the Chief Commissioner that the Aam Aadmi Party government is trying to rig the gurdwara elections by inflating the voter list by registering bogus voters. The AAP government is trying every trick in the trade to include ineligible voters,” he said.

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).
