FSO also accepted request of Shiromani Akali Dal (Amritsar)’s UK unit to join the FSO.
Representatives of various Sikh bodies also discussed the recent incident where the Punjab Government booked members of Sri Guru Granth Sahib Satikar Committee in relation to a beating incident.
FSO leaders said that the publishing video of beating incident on social sites was wrongful, because it was an internal matter of the Sikh community. But they strongly condemned Punjab Police for charging Satikar Committe members for attempt to murder under section 307 of Indian Penal Code.
