This decision marks a crucial step in the legal proceedings surrounding the sacrilege cases.
Punjab Latest News Today: Punjab Chief Minister and Home Minister Bhagwant Mann has granted approval to prosecute Dera Sacha Sauda chief Gurmeet Ram Rahim in connection with three sacrilege cases from 2015. This development comes just three days after the Supreme Court lifted the stay imposed by the Punjab and Haryana High Court on initiating proceedings against Ram Rahim.
With this approval, Ram Rahim will now face trial in a Chandigarh court, as the Supreme Court previously shifted the hearing venue from Faridkot to Chandigarh for these cases. Alongside Ram Rahim, several of his followers are also accused of involvement in these sacrilege incidents.
The sacrilege cases, which have been a significant issue in Punjab for years, relate to the desecration of religious scriptures in 2015, triggering widespread unrest and protests across the state. The prosecution of Ram Rahim and others is expected to reignite public interest in the sensitive case.
This decision marks a crucial step in the legal proceedings surrounding the sacrilege cases, and the upcoming trial will be closely monitored by various factions across Punjab.
