To express anguish over the incidents of sacrilege of Guru Granth Sahib in the State, Shiromani Akali Dal President Sukhbir Singh Badal on Friday appealed all the office bearers and workers of the party to organize Akhand Paths of Guru Granth Sahib in the Gurdwaras located in their villages, towns and cities.
In a statement issued here, Badal impressed upon all the workers to keep strict vigil and surveillance over the holy Gurdwaras round the clock so that none of any mischievous element could dare to perpetrate such heinous crime.
He said that after the Bhog of Sri Akhand Path Sahib, prayers (Ardas) should be organised for the well being (Chardikala) of Sikh Panth.
Shiromani Gurdwara Prabandhak Committee (SGPC) President Jathedar Avtar Singh also urged its members including entire Sikh community to organize Akhand Path in the Gurdwara of every village, town and city across the State.
He said that the various incidents of desecration of Sri Guru Granth Sahib had deeply hurt the Sikhs and impressed upon them to organize Sri Akhand Path of Sri Guru Granth Sahib as a solace from the distress and agony besides well being (Chardikala) of the Sikh Panth.
