Senior Shiromani Akali Dal leader Bikram Singh Majithia has held the Punjab government responsible for the firing incident at Gurudwara Akal Bunga in Sultanpur Lodhi. Majithia said that when the Amrit Vela Sangat was going to pay obeisance at Gurdwara Sri Ber Sahib, the firing started.
CM Bhagwant Mann ordered to open fire
Majithia said that the order to open fire was given by Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann. Because a group of Baba Budda Dal came face to face with the police over capturing Gurudwara Sahib. The police tried to drive out the Nihangs by opening fire at 4 am on Wednesday. Out of which one head constable was martyred. More than 100 rounds were fired.
The dignity of Gurudwara Sahib was violated
Majithia said that decorum was violated when the recitation was taking place in Gurudwara Sahib. It is wrong to enter Gurudwara Sahib wearing boots and carrying weapons. The Punjab government did not pay attention to this. Baba Balbir Singh faction and Baba Man Singh faction of Baba Budda Dal have been at loggerheads with each other for a long time regarding this Gurudwara.
The closeness between CM's wife and Baba Buddha Dal
Accusing Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann and his wife, he said that the CM had given orders to open fire only to capture Balbir Singh of Baba Budda Dal. After which several rounds were fired. Baba Budda Dal also runs a school. Where Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann's wife always arrives as a guest. This only shows how close they are. The atmosphere in Sultanpur Lodhi was tense for two consecutive days.
If CM had wanted, everything could have been fine.
If the Chief Minister had wanted, everything could have been fine and it happened later also. During this, Bikram Singh Majithia showed many photos. in which along with Bhagwant Singh Mann, Balbir Singh of Baba Budda Dal was also present. Along with this, CM's wife Manpreet Kaur was also present at the function held in the school.
FIR should be registered against CM
Majithia said that the main issue was that Man Singh of the other faction of Baba Budda Dal had to be thrown out somehow. Which the Chief Minister has done. The FIR has been lodged against the supporters of Baba Buddha Dal. That FIR should be against the Chief Minister. Because everything is done by the CM only.
Bhagwant Mann is following in the footsteps of Indira Gandhi
The Chief Minister is also following in the footsteps of Indira Gandhi. Indira Gandhi had also hurt the dignity and sentiments of the Sikhs and now the CM has done the same. While showing a video of a Nihang, Majithia said that the Nihang is saying that whatever happened has been done by the police administration. The bullet was not fired from his side. Rather the police opened fire.
