The Sikh Sammellan being convened by SAD (Delhi) chief Paramjit Singh Sarna in Delhi on April 10-11 will be an opportunity for various anti-SAD bodies to lash out at Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal, ahead of the upcoming Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak (SGPC) polls.
Sarna has roped in former Akal Takht jathedar Giani Joginder Singh Vedanti who will preside over the convention. The atmosphere is all set to hot up as the SGPC polls, due since May last year, are expected after the harvesting season. Shiromani Panthic Council (SPC), headed by former minister and SGPC secretary Manjit Singh Calcutta, SAD (1920) headed by Ravi Inder Singh, All India SAD, headed by Jaswant Singh Mann, various representatives from other countries are expected to take part in the Sammellan.
SGPC Chief Avtar Singh Makkar has, meanwhile, termed the convention a mere gimmick and said that neither have they been invitated nor will they take part in the meet. Sources close to Akal Takht Jathedar Giani Gurbachan Singh said the Takht has also not received any invitation.
Makkar said only the Akal Takht has the right to convene such conventions and it was unfortunate that the political leaders were trying to deviate people from the real issues.
Calcutta told The Indian Express that an open invitation had been sent to all Sikhs and no organisation was being specially invited. The convention had the support of over a dozen bodies and political outfits to ensure that it is a success, he said.
