Akali leaders protest sacking of jathedars in Barnala

Akali leaders protested outside the home of SGPC member Paramjit Singh Khalsa in Barnala on Thursday. They opposed the recent dismissal of jathedars and urged Khalsa to challenge the decision in the upcoming SGPC executive committee meeting on March 17. The protesters, including former officials, did not use slogans but chanted "Satnam Waheguru." They called for SGPC members to address the issue in the budget meeting scheduled for March 28. Khalsa was not present during the protest. The demonstration highlights ongoing tensions within the SGPC regarding the treatment of jathedars.
