24 January 2025- Former Deputy Chief Minister of Punjab Sukhbir Singh Badal is looking for new faces for the party. There are many reasons behind this. A campaign to connect 50 lakh people to the party has also been started by SAD.
With the membership campaign to connect 50 lakh people with Shiromani Akali Dal in Punjab, former Deputy CM Sukhbir Badal has now started looking for new faces. Former chief Sukhbir Badal has now started fortifying the Akali Dal with new faces.
If political experts are to be believed, the way Sukhbir Badal reached Badal village and started the campaign in the state by taking the first membership slip. Through this campaign, he also wants to give a special message to the society that the Akali Dal is going to be reorganized. The new head of the Akali Dal will be elected on March 1. Now everyone’s eyes are fixed on the face of the new head of the Akali Dal on March 1.
It has become clear that this time there will be a new face on the post of Pradhan. Sukhbir Badal will be seen trying to find a foothold for the Akali Dal in the state by keeping distance from the chair of Pradhan before the next assembly elections in the year 2027.
Allegation against AAP government of cutting real votes and adding fake votes
Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) met the Chief Commissioner of Gurdwara Elections on Thursday. The delegation led by Executive President Balwinder Singh Bhundar, former President Sukhbir Badal, senior leader Dr. Daljit Singh Cheema met Chief Commissioner of Gurdwara Elections Justice (Retd.) Surinder Singh Saron and requested him to extend the process of registration of voters for the elections of Shiromani Committee till March 31, besides cancelling all fake votes. Sukhbir, while handing over the memorandum, told Justice Saron that the Aam Aadmi Party government had directed booth level officers to register votes on a large scale in the voter lists, due to which thousands of non-Sikhs have been given the right to vote for SGPC elections.
Appeal to extend the deadline for making new votes
He said that genuine votes are being deleted and fake votes are being added. The government is doing this as part of a conspiracy to take control of the SGPC in its hands by any means. Badal urged the Chief Commissioner to issue instructions to review all voter lists so that fake votes can be deleted. He appealed to extend the deadline for making new votes and said that a large number of eligible voters are still left out of the election process.
Non-Sikhs being included in voter list
Senior party leader Dr. Daljit Singh Cheema said that the Akali Dal is in favor of registration of genuine voters, but it is reprehensible that the AAP government is obstructing this process. Thousands of non-Sikhs, who had not even applied to be registered as voters for the elections, have been given this right. He said that the delegation also told the Chief Commissioner about Sikh Rehat Maryada, under which it is mandatory to add Singh or Kaur to Sikh names. He said that voter lists have been submitted to the Commission, in which the names of voters are not in accordance with Sikh Rehat Maryada.
