The Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) has taken cognisance of the damage done to the houses of Sikligar Sikh families and ‘Nishan Sahib’ in a gurdwara by the police at Balsa village in Maharashtra.

SGPC secretary Diljit Singh Bedi said the Chhattisgarh Sikh Mission incharge had been deputed to probe and report back in this regard.

The SGPC will also approach the Maharashtra Government to ensure the safety of the Sikligar Sikhs.

The committee has been taking care of Sikligar families with monetary aid and by helping their children get education. Last year, the SGPC paid school fee of 84 children in various schools at Vishakhapatnam.

Besides this, 40 “frivolous” cases registered against the Sikligar youth were settled.

The apex Sikh body has made arrangements to get them technically trained in various skills.

Knitting centres were opened for their women to make them self-reliant, Bedi said.
