Accepting slavery of fugitive from Akal Takht is not Panthic unity: Giani Harpreet Singh
Launching a sharp attack, Giani Harpreet Singh said that accepting the subordination of any individual who is a fugitive from Sri Akal Takht Sahib cannot be called Panthic unity.
Giani Harpreet Singh said in strict terms that accepting the slavery of any single person or faction that is a fugitive from Sri Akal Takht Sahib cannot be termed as Panthic unity in any way. He clarified that national unity can only be maintained by remaining within the Guru's command, while alliances made keeping only elections in mind can never form the shape of Panthic unity.
Warning the leaders and workers of Shiromani Akali Dal Revitalisation, he said that the community is eternal, and it has to function even after the elections under the edicts of Sri Akal Takht Sahib. He warned that people making alliances out of a lust for power will become even bigger enemies among themselves after losing the elections, so leaders should remain firm on Sikh principles and great traditions.
Giani Harpreet Singh also targeted those leaders who are backing out from the pledge taken by offering prayers at Akal Takht Sahib. He said that those who renege on the promise of strengthening the party made before Guru Sahib will have to answer not just to the world but also in the Guru's court.
Earlier, addressing a gathering of senior leaders, he had said that only that organization can truly represent the community which guards the edicts and principles of Sri Akal Takht Sahib. He mentioned that as per the decision taken by Singh Sahibaan on December 2, 2024, orders were issued to bring forward new leadership because the old leadership had lost its moral right after confessing to its sins.
According to party office secretary Jagjit Singh Kohli and media in-charge Tejinder Singh Pannu, this important virtual meeting was held. Patron Raviinder Singh, Secretary General Gurpratap Singh Wadala, Senior Vice President Sucha Singh Chhotepur, Parminder Singh Dhindsa, and Gobind Singh Longowal, among several senior leaders, were present on the occasion.
