CHANDIGARH: The Punjab and Haryana high court on Thursday issued notice to the Punjab government on a plea filed by Dera Sacha Sauda (DSS)’s controversial head Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh seeking exemption from physical appearance before a local court in Faridkot in connection with two more sacrilege cases in which he has been named recently.

These cases are FIR No. 117 (registered in connection with derogatory posters put up at Bargari on September 24, 2015) and FIR No. 128 (registered after torn pages of a bir were found scattered near Bargari gurdwara on October 12, 2015).
