Amritsar, Jan. 11 -- Shiromani Akali Dal (Punar-Surjeet) president and former Akal Takht acting jathedar Giani Harpreet Singh on Friday disapproved of the Akal Takht summons to chief minister Bhagwant Mann to appear before it on January 15. Expressing disagreement with Akal Takht acting jathedar Giani Kuldeep Singh Gargaj summoning CM Mann for allegedly making anti-Sikh remarks, the former jathedar said, "Instead written clarification should have been sought from the CM. Actually, both sides are playing politics." Interacting with the media during a meeting of the party rank and file, which was organised by city president Maninder Singh Dhunna, Giani Harpreet also said political manoeuvring was being carried out to protect those responsible in the case of 328 missing saroops of Guru Granth Sahib. Responding to query on the legal action initiated by the Punjab Police in case of missing saroops, he said the issue was not a tool to target any government or institution, but a highly sensitive matter linked to the faith and sentiments of the Sikh community. Giani Harpreet alleged that while on the one hand attempts were being made to evade responsibility by deliberately delaying the investigation, on the other hand the issue was being misused for political gain. On the occasion, Giani Harpreet announced the launch of district-level meetings across Punjab by the party. He said through these meetings, the party leadership will directly reach villages and towns and interact with people to hold discussions on Punjab's political, social and panthic issues. He said these meetings will help understand the ground reality of Punjab, listen to the voice of the people and formulate the party's future strategy accordingly. Targeting the Punjab government, he alleged that the present regime was following anti-Punjab policies regarding the state's lands and institutions....
