The SGPC has asked Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann to seek an apology from the Sikh community for allegedly violating the ‘maryada’ of the Guru’s house by visiting it under the influence of liquor.
The Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee demanded apology days after Shiromani Akali Dal chief Sukhbir Badal on Thursday accused Chief Minister Mann of visiting Takht Damdama Sahib in Bathinda under the influence of liquor, an allegation strongly denied as “false and baseless” by the ruling Aam Aadmi Party.
The apex gurdwara body SGPC demanded apology from the Chief Minister saying that his visit in an alleged inebriated state was a violation of 'Sikh maryada' (code of conduct) and against the reverence of the Guru's house.
