Gobind Singh Longowal, president, SGPC, had come to preside over the function organised to mark the 14th death anniversary of the late Jathedar Gurcharn Singh Tohra.

He said the SGPC received various complaints regarding the recruitments after which, a four-member committee under the chairmanship of Raghujit Singh Virk, senior vice president, was constituted and the committee found that most of the appointments were made against the law. The report was discussed at the interim committee meeting and the decision was taken to remove them.

Longowal said the SGPC would issue a fresh advertisement for the new recruitment and the case of all these employees who have been removed will be considered on priority as they have served the SGPC.
