He said that after DSGMC approached for permission on 31 March 2016 Delhi government taking plea that the Supreme Court had imposed interim restriction on installation of statues on public places denied the permission on 18 May 2016.
Manjit Singh G.K. questioned Delhi government that if Supreme Court has imposed restriction how has Delhi government installed statues of Shaheed Bhagat Singh, Rajguru and Sukhdev in Delhi Vidhan Sabha on 23 March 2016 ? G.K. alleged that Kejriwal was continuously opposing Sikhs and advised four Sikh MLAs of Aam admi party (AAP) in Delhi to listen to the voice of their conscience and not become party to the decisions which are anti Panthic. G.K. informed that he had written to a letter to Kejriwal on 27 May 2016 issuing an appeal not getting biased towards martyrs and again asked him to give permission for installation of statue of Baba Banda Singh Bahadur.
