Sukhbir Badal meets Rajnath over SGPC controversy
With Haryana giving clear indications of going ahead to set up a separate Sikh body to manage gurdwaras in the state, Punjab’s ruling Shiromani Akali Dal chief Sukhbir Singh Badal met union Home Minister Rajnath Singh to seek the central government’s intervention in the matter.
An Akali Dal spokesman said that Badal met Rajnath Singh in Delhi and briefed him “about the mischief being played by the Congress party to divide and weaken the Sikh community by propping up the demand for a separate management committee to manage Sikh affairs in Haryana”.
