Ambala, Haryana: The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has extended it’s support to Bhai Gurbaksh Singh Khalsa on the issue of Sikh Political prisoners. Gurbaksh Singh Khasla is on indefinite hunger strike from November 14 seeking permanent release of seven Sikh political prisoners who were sentenced to imprisonment for life and were not being granted premature release even over-serving the statutory terms of their sentences.
