Akal Takht Jathedar Asks For Installation Of Three Khalistani Terrorists' Portraits Including Hardeep Singh Nijjar

In prayer service held by Shiromani Gurudwara Prabandhak Committee (SGPC), Akal Takht Jathedar Giani Raghubir Singh has requested that the portraits of three Khalistani terrorists should be installed at the Central Sikh Museum.

Hardeep Singh Nijjar, killed in Canada last year is one of these three terrorists. Other two are Gajinder Singh Khalsa and Paramjeet Singh Panjwar. All three were on the Government's wanted list.

The service was held for Dal Khalsa founder Gajinder Singh Khalsa who died from a heart attack in a Pakistani hospital as per a report by The Indian Express.

“Following the Akal Chalana (passing away) of Gajinder Singh in Pakistan a few days ago, today last prayers for him were held inside Golden Temple by SGPC with support from Dal Khalsa," states a press note issued by SGPC.

"On this occasion, prominent figures like Akal Takht Jathedar Giani Raghbir Singh, SGPC president Harjinder Singh Dhami, Jathedar of Takht Sri Damdama Sahib Giani Harpreet Singh, and other community leaders participated,” it continued.

Raghbir Singh further said, “Gajinder Singh was a warrior of Sikh struggles who dedicated a significant part of his life to the cause of the community. Despite his life as an exiled warrior, he never compromised on his firmness and dedication towards the struggle for freedom for the community. I regret that governments in the country where we reside have never truly considered our rights.”

Dal Khalsa leader Kanwarpal Singh mentioned that after Panjwar's assassination in Pakistan last year, the Pakistani government informed Gajinder Singh that they had arrested a person with his photograph and a list that included the names of both Gajinder and Nijjar.
