Delhi Sikh Conference non–political, Badal & SGPC members must attend: Sarna

PHAGWARA: Delhi Gurdwara Parbhandhak Committee President Jathedar Paramjit Singh Sarna has said that World Sikh Conference scheduled to be held in Delhi in second week of April, will be non–political and all Sikhs including Parkash Singh Badal, SGPC members and sikh clergy should participate in the conference.

Talking to newsmen here on Friday, Sarna said a delegation headed by him(Sarna) will meet Prime Minister Manmohan Singh on Monday to sought his intervention in the case of 17 Indians including 16 Punjabis sentenced to death by Sharjah court in UAE.

Talking to newsmen at Phagwara on Friday afternoon, Sarna said that it is moral duty of Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal to visit UAE himself to take up the matter with UAE Government to save the lives of innocent Indians who had been convicted for a single murder of a Pakistani citizen.He urged the international community to intervene to prevent the miscarriage of justice in UAE.

Replying a question about recent episode of SGPC and use of task force ,Sarna described it as a dictatorial working of present SGPC,which acted in an inhuman way in the presence of Shri Guru Granth Sahib Ji.

When asked about the possibilities of the formation of separate Gurdwara Parbhandhak Committees in some other states,Sarna answered yes, of course it was the need of the hour to save the religious shrines from the clutches of the corrupt practices of SGPC leadership.

Sarna said that Sikhs residing in other states wanted to set up separate gurdwara parbhandhak committees.

Replying a question about 1984 Riots and the guilties congress leaders, Sarna said DGPC strongly opposed both guilty congress leaders and even DGPC strongly stood against them in the elections.Sarna however hestitated to comment on the issues of the Prof Darshan Singh (Ex-Jathedar Akal Takhat) and Ravidassia Community, belonging to Dera Ballan wale.
