'Unfortunate': Akal Takht jathedar on sacking of Giani Harpreet Singh

I want to say from my heart that terminating services of Giani Harpreet Singh is an extremely condemnable and unfortunate act. GIANI RAGHBIR SINGH, Akal Takht jathedar

- Surjit Singh

AMRITSAR: Akal Takht jathedar Giani Raghbir Singh on Thursday broke his silence on the removal of Giani Harpreet Singh as the jathedar of Takht Damdama Sahib, saying the decision will harm the independent status of Sikh temporal seats. He strongly condemned the decision of the Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC)'s executive committee to sack Giani Harpreet Singh.

Giani Raghbir Singh, who is on a visit to the United Kingdom (UK) these days, shared a post on his official Facebook account. "I have been following the developments that have been happening for the past few days seriously from all angles. My mind is saddened by these circumstances. The reasons and methods used to remove jathedar Giani Harpreet Singh of Takht Sri Damdama Sahib from his post are not correct at all".
