Spokesperson of Damdami taksal, a Sikh educatinal institution, Bhai Mohkam Singh has been appointed as the convenor of new outfit whose 26 member ad-hoc committee was announced here today. Gurdeep Singh has been appointed as General Secretary. While announcing the formation of the Sanyukt Akali Dal in a meeting held at Guru Nanak Bhawan here, Mr Singh said that the motive behind the formation of new Akali Dal was to free the Sikh institution from the clutches of Parkash Singh Badal, Chief Minister of Punjab.

tonyhp32 Posted November 24, 2014 Report Share Posted November 24, 2014 The United SIkh Movement had extended support to AAP during the last elections so rather than create another party which will divide the anti-Badal and anti-BJP vote, they should have joined AAP and ensured that AAP becomes even more Sikh orientated. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dalsingh101 Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 they should have joined AAP and ensured that AAP becomes even more Sikh orientated. What is your issue with having a party that isn't aligned along sectarian/religious lines? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
