:dateline:This past week, S. Harminder Singh Gill (Congress) rammed the Akali Dal (Badal) for challenging the highest institution of �Panj Pyare� by sacking them via the SGPC. �Gill said that the Deputy Chief Minister Sukhbir Badal was hurting�the sentiments of the Sikh masses�via such actions.
He added that the current President of SGPC Avtar Makkar was marionette of Badals and he has no interest towards the Sikh religion. �Gill�further added that Badal appointed Takht Jathedars have blotted the supremacy of the divine Takhas by granting pardon to Sirsa Cult Chief Gurmeet Ram Rahim in blasphemy case and they have lost their credibility.
“Sikh masses are not allowing them to speak despite beefed security then how could they be considered Jathedars of Sikh Takhts,” he asked.
He said that several Badal influenced SGPC officials have committed a sin by challenging the highest institution of �Panj Pyare�. �Citing the historic eve of Chamkaur Sahib, he said that even Guru Gobind Singh Ji knelt before the command of the �Panj Pyares�.
