Deep-rooted plot against Sikhs: YAD

Chandigarh, February 23

The Youth Akali Dal (YAD) today held district-level protest rallies across the state against the state DGP’s alleged remarks on Kartarpur Sahib.

In a press release, the YAD alleged that it was a deep-rooted conspiracy hatched against Sikhs.

While raising slogans against the DGP and Congress leaders, the Youth Akali workers took out processions through the markets of Muktsar, Amritsar Sahib, Ludhiana, Jalandhar, Faridkot, and other districts. They burnt effigies of the DGP and the Congress president, and castigated them for toeing the line of former minister Indira Gandhi by trying to label Sikhs as terrorists.

Speaking to medipersons, YAD leaders Gurpartap Singh Tikka and Talbir Singh Gill said the state DGP should be dismissed from the top post immediately for propagating falsehood against a peace-loving community, which always stood for protection of underprivileged sections in society. — TNS
