JALANDHAR: Following objections by Sikh quarters to the appointment of a non-Sikh bureaucrat as administrator of Takht Hazur Sahib Management Board, Maharashtra government on Friday appointed retired IAS officer Dr Vijay Satbir Singh to the post.
Former Delhi Sikh Gurdwara Management Committee chief and now BJP leader Manjinder Singh Sirsa revealed that Home Minsiter Amit Shah and BJP president J P Nadda had intervened to get a Sikh administrator for the Board.
