“The police told us that Bapuji is being shifted to PGI Chandigarh”, she added.

On being asked that if the family was informed that why Bapu Surat Singh was being shifted to PGI, Bibi Sarvinder Kaur said: “We are not sure about the reason as the police or the DMC staff did not disclose the reason. But I believe that deteriorated health condition of Bapuji could be the reason behind the move”.

She said that Bapu Surat Singh had not granted his consent to the DMC staff to administer him nutrition supplements. She alleged that Bapu Surat Singh was being mentally tortured as the hospital staff was repeatedly trying to convince him to take such supplements.

It is notable that Bapu Surat Singh Khalsa is on hunger strike since January 16 seeking permanent release of certain Sikh political prisoners, who have completed their mandatory jail terms.
