CHANDIGARH: Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) leaders will meet Akal Takht jathedar Giani Raghbir Singh on Wednesday to seek clarification on reorganisation of the party, which is being supervised by a seven-member committee constituted by the Takht on December 2 last year.

The move comes a day after Giani Raghbir Singh told the SAD to comply with the Sikh clergy's December 2 decree and accept party president Sukhbir Singh Badal's resignation, besides working towards reorganising the party structure.

During an interaction on Monday, the jathedar said: "The SAD should not dilly-dally the matter and should comply with the hukamnama of the Sikh clergy at the earliest."

According to people familiar with the matter, the SAD leadership will decide its next course of action on holding a working committee meeting to take a call on Sukhbir's resignation after meeting the jathedar.

"We have decided to meet the Akal Takht jathedar tomorrow to seek his clarification on reorganisation of the party by the committee," said party vice-president Daljit Singh Cheema.
