At a time when Punjab Police is probing the projectile attack at the headquarters of its intelligence wing in Mohali, radical Sikh leader and chief of Shiromani Akali Dal (Amritsar) Simranjit Singh Mann has raised the ‘Khalistan’ bogey yet again.
Mr. Mann has urged the Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) – the body responsible for the management of gurdwaras, to support the pro-Khalistan resolution, which he claimed was unanimously passed in 1946 by the SGPC.
Mr. Mann raised the issue surrounding ‘Khalistan’ at a meeting convened by the SGPC on Wednesday at its headquarters Teja Singh Samundri Hall in Amritsar, for deliberating the release of Sikh prisoners.
