It is notable that senior leaders of SAD (Badal) are indicted in Justice Ranjit Singh Commission’s report for their role in getting Dera Sauda Sirsa chief Gurmeet Ram Rahim pardoned by SGPC appointed Jathedars; for shielding Dera Sauda Sirsa followers who committed beadbi of Guru Granth Sahib in Buraj Jawahar Singh Wala, Bargari, Gurusar & Malke and for police firing in Kotkapura and Behbal Kalan village- where two Sikhs were killed by police in unprovoked firing.

MLAs belonging to the ruling Congress party and opposition Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) strongly condemned SAD (Badal) leaders for their role as detailed in Justice Ranjit Singh Commission’s report.
