AMRITSAR: The Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee has condemned chief minister (CM) Bhagwant Singh Mann's proposed amendment to the Sikh Gurdwaras Act, 1925 stating that the same threatens the very essence of Sikhism and undermines the autonomy and democratic functioning of gurdwaras.
In a hurriedly convened press conference on Monday, SGPC president Harjinder Singh Dhami said that any amendment to the Sikh Gurdwaras Act, 1925, could only be carried out by the Government of India through parliamentary processes, as recommended by the General House of the SGPC.
