Amritsar, Punjab (June 16, 2014): During a meeting of five jathedars at Akal Takhat on Sunday, Akal Takhat Jathedar Giani Gurbachan Singh took note of alleged “derogatory remarks” that were passed against the Akal Takht jathedar by Gurcharan Singh Babbar, a Delhi-based Sikh, who runs an organisation called the ‘All India Sikh Conference’.

Gurcharan Singh Babbar had in a recent article in a Punjabi magazine, criticised the functioning of the jathedar. He too has been asked to appear before the Akal Takht at the next meeting of the high priests.
