No bar on gathering at Takht but maintain 'maryada': SGPC chief

As Sikh hardliners are gearing up to organise a gathering at Akal Takht on December 18 to express opposition to the Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC)'s resolution to excommunicate Narain Singh Chaura, a former militant, who attacked Sukhbir Singh Badal on December 4, the gurdwara body president Harjinder Singh Dhami said the gathering will not be restricted and the organisers should maintain discipline and maryada.

AMRITSAR:

Dhami said, "There is no bar on anyone coming to Akal Takht Sahib. But he or she should remain there within the boundaries of Gurmat (teachings of Gurus). There is no restriction on them if they come to Akal Takht Sahib and put up their logic or give representation. There must be no violation of maryada."
