Chandigarh, January 14, 2026(Yes Punjab News)
Punjab Pradesh Congress Committee president Amarinder Singh Raja Warring today appealed to Jathedar Shri Akaal Takht Sahib to clarify on the issue of political parties holding political conferences during the Shaheedi Melas at Fatehgarh Sahib and Muktsar Sahib.
In a statement issued here today, Warring said,
in December 2017, then Jathedar Shri Akaal Takht Sahib Giani Gurbachan Singh Ji had issued an appeal to political parties not to hold political conferences on such solemn and pious religious occasions.
“How come the ruling Aam Aadmi Party, the Shiromani Akali Dal and the Bharatiya Janata Party held the political conferences today at the Maghi Mela in Muktsar Sahib?” he asked, while adding, “would the Akal Takht take action?”
The PCC president said the Congress in due respect for the Akal Takht direction has not held any political conference since 2017.
“The Akal Takht directive must be respected by all. Hope Jathedar Akal Takht Sahib takes note of this”, Warring observed.
