Amritsar, Punjab: Expressing concern over the targeted killing of Sikhs in Pakistan, the Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) has written to India’s foreign minister Sushma Swaraj urging her to take up the issue with the Pakistan government.
In a statement SGPC chief Avtar Singh Makkar said, “The regular attacks on Sikhs in Pakistan are a very serious issue and clearly indicate that the government over there is not bothered about the security of the minorities.”
Appealing to Sushma Swaraj, SGPC chief said, “We want the Indian government to pressurize Pakistan as far as security of Sikhs is concerned. The Pakistani ambassador in India should also convey our sentiments.”
