After the completion of punishment, efforts to revive the Akali Dal in Punjab will now begin.

Amritsar: Former Punjab Deputy CM Sukhbir Badal reached Sri Akal Takht Sahib in Amritsar and paid obeisance. Earlier in the morning, other Akali Dal leaders also reached there and offered prayers. All of them reached Amritsar after completing their 10-day religious punishment and paid obeisance at the Akal Takht.

Akali leader Daljit Singh Cheema after reaching Amritsar in the morning said that they followed the orders given to them by Sri Akal Takht Sahib and completed Sewa. He thanked the entire leadership that everyone contributed enthusiastically to the service. During this, Cheema was also asked about Virsa Singh Valtoha but he did not give any reaction.

Heavy police force was deployed in the Golden Temple complex. Regarding the security arrangements, Cheema said that today’s security is just a show-off. He added that if the alertness shown today was shown during the day of attack, then the matter would not have escalated so much and the wrong message that went to the world could also have been stopped.

After the completion of punishment, efforts to revive the Akali Dal in Punjab will now begin. After completing the last day of his sentence at Sri Muktsar Sahib yesterday, Sukhbir Badal reached Sri Akal Takht Sahib today to pay obeisance.

In the last 10 days, Sukhbir Badal has completed a 2-day sentence at Sri Muktsar Sahib, Golden Temple, Sri Keshgarh Sahib, Sri Damdama Sahib, and Sri Fatehgarh Sahib. Today Sukhbir Badal reached Amritsar and as per the orders, he will inform Sri Akal Takht Sahib Secretariat about the completion of his sentence. After this, he will complete his sentence by offering prayers at Sri Akal Takht Sahib. At this occasion, Ardas will also be performed.
