Punjab CM slams Akalis for reducing SGPC to “Shiromani Golak Prabhandak Committee” for their greed

Amritsar, Jun 8 (UNI) Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann on Sunday strongly criticized Akali leaders, accusing them of reducing the Shiromani Gurdwara Prabandhak Committee (SGPC) to a mere “Shiromani Golak Prabandhak Committee” out of their greed for money.
Addressing a public gathering, he alleged that the Badals misused their political power to interfere in religious affairs, including manipulating the appointment of Jathedars of Sri Akal Takht Sahib to suit
their personal interests. He claimed that the Akalis, driven by financial motives, have degraded the sanctity of the SGPC and misused both it and Sri Akal Takht Sahib for narrow political gains. Mann accused them of twisting the directives of Sri Akal Takht Sahib to deceive the public and serve their
own agendas.
The Chief Minister further stated that the Akalis have looted not only the state exchequer but also
funds belonging to religious institutions. He criticized their tenure, saying it was marked by political
and religious exploitation, which caused significant harm to Punjab. Mann said the Akali leadership symbolizes a legacy where the poor were neglected while the powerful looted the state with impunity.
He said that the Akalis exploited the underprivileged and weaker sections of society adding that they
are now facing the consequences of their actions. said that the people of state will never forgive the Akalis for the crimes committed by them against the state and its residents. “The prayers of the poor
and honest always reach God, and their curses are unstoppable, that’s why Badals are now paying
for their sins,” he added.
