Chandigarh: Various Sikh leaders today hailed the decision of the Akal Takht, the highest temporal seat of the Sikh religion, which annulled its edict of pardoning Dera Sacha Sauda Sect Chief Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh, saying the move has undone the “highly objectionable” act committed earlier.
“It is a good decision taken by the Akal Takht. It has undone the mistake which was committed earlier (by pardoning Gurmeet Singh from blasphemy charges),” former general secretary of the Shiromani Gurdwara Parbhandhak Committee Kiranjot Kaur said.
“You cannot pardon anyone by just accepting one’s (written) clarification,” she asserted.
