During his address, Giani Harpreet Singh shared his thoughts on the current political situation going on in SGPC and Sikh Community.
He emphasized that political parties often lose direction when internal conflicts arise, especially when a single family begins to see the party as their personal property. Giani harpreet Singh also highlighted that, within the Akali Dal, leaders have always made efforts to reconcile differences but never compromised on principles.
In relation to the controversial December 2 decision, he assured that neither political pressure nor interference influenced their stance.
