Why Dhami is associated with Akali Dal: Grewal

CHANDIGARH: Senior Bharatiya Janata Party leader Sardar Harjeet Singh Grewal has strongly criticized the recent statement by Shiromani Gurdwara Management Committee (SGPC) chief Harjinder Singh Dhami, wherein Dhami advised members of the Delhi Sikh Gurdwara Management Committee (DSGMC) who have joined BJP to resign from their positions.

Grewal questioned Dhami’s own affiliation with the Shiromani Akali Dal, a party that Grewal claims has become a family party.

“Dhami himself should first answer as to what interests he has with SAD affiliation”, Grewal said.

Grewal emphasized that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is not anti-Sikh and highlighted the efforts made by Prime Minister Narendra Modi for the welfare of Sikhs. He stated, “PM Modi has taken significant steps for the Sikh community’s well-being, proving that BJP is inclusive and supportive of Sikhs.”

Taking a direct shot at the Congress and Shiromani Akali Dal, Grewal questioned Dhami, “Which party was responsible for organizing the massacre of Sikhs? Who was behind the sacrilege incidents?”

He further pointed out that Dhami is silent about these unresolved issues as culprits are walking free.

Grewal continued, “If Dhami did not speak out against Sikhs joining Congress, a party linked to the Sikh massacre, then why is he giving threatening advice to those who join BJP?”

Halsa Panth has also not written anywhere as to which political party Sikhs should join and which should not.

This response comes after Dhami expressed strong objection to DSGMC members joining BJP, suggesting that they should first resign from their positions in DSGMC if they wish to engage in BJP politics. He also accused the BJP of interfering in the religious matters of other religions.
