SAD to approach SGPC for memorial in Amritsar

News, Punjab

New Delhi: Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) president Sukhbir Singh Badal has said he would ask the SGPC to build a memorial to 1984 riot victims in Amritsar — similar to Wall of Truth at Gurdwara Rakab Ganj Sahib here.

He said this at an “ardas samagam” at Gurdwara Rakab Ganj Sahib here today, paying tributes to victims on the 33rd anniversary of anti-Sikh riots.

On the occasion, the Delhi Sikh Gurdwara Management Committee (DSGMC) passed two resolutions — to get ownership right of flats allotted to victims and get the chargesheet filed in the Nangloi case, in which Congress leader Sajjan Kumar is an accused.
