When asked about Bibi Jagir Kaur, Sukhbir Badal said that he respects her. Right now they don’t know anything about his standing in the elections. During this, Sukhbir Badal also termed the envelope system in the SGPC elections as a lie. He said that SGPC elections are held according to the rules. All this is an attempt to defame Shiromani Akali Dal. But this does not matter to the Akali Dal.
Interference in Sikhism is not good
Sukhbir Badal has also expressed concern over the interference of other religions in Sikhism and SGPC during this period. He said that all Sikh organizations will have to fight together under Sri Akal Takht Sahib. Efforts are being made to break SGPC. Everyone knows that Sikhism gets its strength from Sri Akal Takht Sahib and SGPC. That’s why there are repeated attempts to break it.
