1984 anti-Sikh riots case: Delhi High Court grants bail to Sajjan Kumar
New Delhi, Feb 26 (ANI): Congress leader Sajjan Kumar was on Friday granted bail by the Delhi High Court in connection with the two cases registered against him in the 1984 anti-Sikh riots case.
The Delhi Police earlier on Thursday suspended Kumar's personal security officer (PSO) after he informed his seniors that Kumar, accused in 1984 anti-Sikh riot cases, was "missing" for at least two days.
The PSO, Constable Ram Niroha, reportedly approached his seniors at Delhi Police's security wing on February 19.
The Karkardooma Court had on Tuesday (February 23) issued a fresh non-bailable warrant against Kumar and slammed the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) for its failure to arrest Kumar and others accused in the case.
Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Lokesh Kumar Sharma had refuted the plea of the investigating agencies to issue a proclamation against the accused on the ground that he was absconding.
The CBI, which arrested one out of 12 accused, said that it conducted raids at Kumar's residence four times after the warrant was issued on February 17, but failed to apprehend him. It also asked the court to declare the former MP and other accused as absconders.
The court issued fresh non-bailable warrant against Kumar and 11 other accused for March 10.
The court said on Tuesday, "So far ground work is concerned; CBI does not seem to be serious enough to apprehend the accused. CBI wants to complete only paper work. These are all stereotype reports."
The harsh comments of the court came followed by the CBI acceptance that it failed to apprehend the accused despite conducting raids.
The CBI had on January 13 charge-sheeted Kumar and others in the two cases accusing them of making provocative speeches, leading to the killing of 12 persons in the riots that followed the assassination of Prime Minister Indira Gandhi on October 31, 1984. (ANI)

FATEHGARH SAHIB: The Shriomani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC), the supreme religious body of Sikhs would soon add flacourr of corporate culture to its headquarter at Amritsar with a dedicated team of Business Management professionals handling the key affairs.
This would be for the first time that SGPC has initiated process to induct MBA professionals to its team of about 3,000 employees.
It may be mentioned here that SGPC, a statutory body comprising elected representatives of the Sikhs concerned primarily with the management of sacred Sikh shrines under its control within the territorial limits of Punjab, Haryana, Himachal Pradesh and the Union territory of Chandigarh.
Apart from the management of Gurdwaras, the SGPC runs many prestigious educational institutions including Medical colleges, Hospitals and many charitable trusts.
SGPC which is also known as mini parliament of Sikhs had invited Gursikh and Amritdhari candidates to appear in the walk-in-interview for various posts in Mata Gujri College, Fatehgarh Sahib on Thursday. The interviews for various posts held in the college premises. SGPC president Avtar Singh Makkar has constituted a committee to select the candidates.
According to information received, SGPC Director Education Dr Gurmohan Singh Walia, SGPC secretary Dilmegh Singh, a charted accountant S.S. Kohli, Mata Gujri College, Fatehgarh Sahib principal Dr Jatinder Singh Sidhu and Khalsa College, Patiala principal Dr Dharminder Singh Ubha was member of the selection committee. The interview started around 2 pm and continued till late evening. Written test of the candidates were also taken.
For two posts of Supervisor (Store Purchase) the SGPC has preferred MBA in Material Management candidates. Sources said nine candidates have applied. For the one post of Supervisor/Accounts Officer the religious body fixed MBA finance qualification. Sources said nine candidates applied for the post.
For the ten posts of Supervisor Accounts the SGPC preferred B.Com/M.Com PGDCA qualification. Sources said 63 candidates applied for the post. For the three posts of Branch Supervisor the committee fixed M.A. English with atleast second division with proficiency in spoken and written. Sources said total 11 candidates applied for the post.
For the two posts of Supervisor publicity the SGPC fixed qualification MJMC/MMC with 5 years experience in English newspaper. Sources said only two candidates applied for the post.
Dr Walia informed that those Gursikh candidates who were not Amritdharis at present were also allowed to attend walk-in-interview. However, if selected they will have to partake Amrit before joining duty. While confirming that MBAs will be appointed first time in SGPC head office at Amritsar, claimed that today’s interviews have conducted in a transparent way.
SGPC did not allow patits (apostate) Sikhs candidates to appear in the interview.
The SGPC did not mention any age limit in the advertisements given in newspapers neither mention scale for the duty but it was mentioned that there is age relaxation for deserving candidates.
Not only male but a large number of female candidates also attended interview for posts.
When contacted SGPC president Avtar Singh Makkar he said the committee wants to hire professional for providing better services to people and to get best result.
It may be mentioned that The Sikh Gurdwara Act 1925 was clear that the Shiromani committee or institutes being run by it could not be treated as an industry, corporation or a business house. The employees who were recruited got salary for the “seva” they rendered to gurdwaras or SGPC-run institutes.

1984 anti-Sikh riots case: Court denies bail to accused
IANS
A city court Thursday denied bail to an accused in an anti-Sikh riot case stating that the allegations levelled against him are serious.
Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Lokesh Kumar denied bail to Girdhari Lal, one of the accused from the Delhi Cantonment area, stating that the allegations levelled against him are direct and serious in nature.
'I have gone through the statement of complainant Jagdish Kaur. Taking into consideration the gravity of offence and heinousness of offence of crime, the accused is not entitled to bail. The application is thus devoid of merit and hence dismissed,' the court said.
Girdhari Lal is presently in judicial custody.
Lal was produced before a city court Monday after the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) executed the non-bailable warrant (NBW) against him.
The court had Feb 17 issued NBW against Lal, Congress leader Sajjan Kumar and others.
On the earlier hearing, the court had termed the arrest of Girdhari Lal as the catch of a small fish, and said: 'The investigating officers (IO) of the cases are not serious about arresting the accused. Their role is suspicious.'
The CBI had filed a chargesheet against Sajjan Kumar and others in two cases for allegedly instigating mobs after the assassination of then prime minister Indira Gandhi Oct 31, 1984.
Over 3,000 Sikhs across Delhi were killed in the communal frenzy in the days following the assassination.
