Amritsar/ Patiala, July 15,
Sri Akal Takht has summoned President Sukhbir Singh Badal, requesting a written response to allegations made by rebel Akali factions. This decision follows a meeting of the Panj Singh Sahibs at the Office Secretariat of Sri Akal Takht Sahib.
Sukhbir Badal has been given 15 days to respond.
On July 1, a group of rebel Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) leaders appeared at Akal Takht Sahib, seeking an apology for incidents that occurred between 2007 and 2017 during the SAD’s time in power. The rebels’ letter alleged that the SGPC spent nearly Rs 90 lakh on newspaper advertisements to justify its decisions. However, due to strong public resistance, both the SAD leadership and the SGPC had to reverse their stance.
