SGPC Accepts Demands of ‘Pathi’ Singhs

:dateline:On August 8, the apex Sikh body Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhik Committee announced they would accept the demands of ‘Pathi’ (reciter of sacred texts) Singhs. The aggrieved group had staged a protest inside the sanctum sanctorum Sri Harmandir Sahib on July 9 seeking a hike in wages and facilitation of other services like regular SGPC employees.

Interacting with media on August 8, the SGPC president Prof. Kirpal Singh Badungar said that the ‘Pathis’ were a responsible and respectable class of the Sikh community and their demands have been accepted after receiving a nod from executive members. He stated that the SGPC had appointed a sub-committee in this concern and now the SGPC has implemented the recommendations made by this sub-committee. ���
