FIR lodged in the killing of Kar Seva Pramukh

Following the death of Kar Seva Pramukh Baba Tarsem Singh who was shot dead by two assailants on motorcycles, an FIR has been filed at Nanakmatta Police Station against former IAS officer Harbansh Singh Chugh and two others, Pritam Singh and Baba Anoop Singh, for their alleged involvement in the murder.

A sevadar of the Kar Seva, Jasbir Singh, claimed that Harbansh Singh Chugh and two others had plotted to assassinate the Kar Seva Pramukh. He further asserted that, aside from these three individuals, others are also implicated in the murder conspiracy.

As per Jasbir Singh, former IAS officer Harbansh Singh Chugh, Pritam Singh, and Baba Anoop Singh allegedly schemed to assassinate Baba Tarsem Singh to thwart any attempts of misappropriating Gurudwara Nanakmatta Sahib’s property.

The Uttarakhand police stated that they are closely investigating the case and are carrying out raids in Uttar Pradesh and Punjab to locate the accused.

Uttarakhand Director General of Police, Abhinav Kumar, mentioned that they were informed about two masked attackers who entered Nanakmatta Gurdwara and shot Kar Seva Pramukh Baba Tarsem Singh. Singh was swiftly taken to Khatima hospital, but unfortunately, he passed away due to his injuries.

Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami visited the Nanakmatta Gurdwara camp and offered his respects to Baba Tarsem Singh on Thursday. Lok Sabha candidate Ajay Bhatt was also in attendance alongside the Chief Minister.

According to the police, Baba Tarsem Singh was hurried to Khatima hospital after sustaining gunshot wounds and was subsequently pronounced dead by doctors. Police authorities have reached out to central agencies to exchange pertinent information, and an extensive search operation is currently underway to apprehend the perpetrators. The state police express confidence in resolving the murder case.

In response to Baba Tarsem Singh’s murder, CM Dhami has instructed the Uttarakhand DGP to promptly and rigorously pursue action against the perpetrators.

The Chief Minister stated that an SIT has been established to probe this incident, and senior police officials have been firmly instructed to swiftly apprehend these murderers, who are enemies of society and humanity.

Additional police forces have been deployed in the Nanakmatta area of Udham Singh Nagar district to uphold peace, and the police have urged the Sikh community to maintain calm.

Meanwhile, SDM Khatima Ravindra Singh Bisht mentioned that the law and order situation in the area is stable.
