AMRITSAR: Damdami Taksal chief and Sant Samaj president Sant Giani Harnam Singh Khalsa said that there is a lot of enthusiasm in the Panth for the program that has been drawn to reach the Shiromani Committee headquarters, here on March 28 to cancel the new appointment of the Jathedars of the Takhts and restore the old ones.
He said that the decision is irrevocable and no change can be made in the program drawn during the Panthic gathering at Sri Anandpur Sahib.
He appealed to the Sikh Sangat to reach the Golden Gate of Amritsar Sahib before 11 am by making a huge Panthic gathering of protest and waving the Kesari Kesari Nishan Sahib and rolling in convoys from every corner of Punjab.
He said that from there at 12 pm, the leaders of Sant Samaj, along with Nihang Singh organizations, will reach the Shiromani Committee office in a convoy but peacefully. The convoy will reach Teja Singh Samundari Hall. Where the members of the Shiromani Committee who came to attend the budget session will be forced to be of one voice to change the wrong and anti-Panth decision taken by the Interim Committee regarding the Jathedars and to reinstate the Jathedars who were removedll.
He said that for the participation and convenience of the Sangat, duties of Singhs have been assigned from different areas.
He said that a respectful procedure should be made for the recruitment and retirement or farewell of Singh Sahibans. The demand for which will be placed before the Shiromani Committee.
He said that apart from Delhi, Rajasthan, Haryana, the Sangats from Maharashtra are also ready to reach through their own means. But the Sangats of Amritsar should have special participation and appealed to the Sangat of the city to also respect the Sangats coming from outside Punjab.
He said that our program will be completely peaceful. He also appealed to the Nihang Singh organizations, Sant Samaj, Khalsa Diwan, Sikh organizations, Sikh federations and the management committees of Gurdwaras for their strong participation.
Sant Giani Harnam Singh Khalsa took strict notice of the Himachal Police and the government for disrespecting the Nishan Sahib of Sikhism and the flags with the pictures of Sant Baba Jarnail Singh Khalsa Bhindranwale and the bullying being done to the youth going to visit religious places from Punjab.
He said that instead of taking legal action against the local residents and police officials who bullied the Sikh youth, the Himachal government has done a lot of bullying by issuing pamphlets to the youth of Punjab. Which I strongly condemn and urge the Himachal government not to try to provoke such an atmosphere, every citizen in the country has the right to equality. The rest of Sant Baba Jarnail Singh Ji Khalsa Bhindranwale was a religious personality of the nation.
He fought for the rights of the nation. Secondly, he always respected every religion. He also respected Hinduism and Muslim religion. Some people are spreading hatred and false propaganda against his personality.
He is always universally accepted by the Sikhs and every Sikh's head bows before his sacrifice.
He advised the Himachal government not to worsen the situation and said that the neighboring states of Himachal, Haryana and Rajasthan all have deep relations with Punjab.
