Amritsar, Punjab (March 14, 2014): According to certain media reports Sikhs from Rajasthan under the banner of Bhai Bulaka Singh Sangarsh Morcha, Budha Jauhad, have accused Akal Takht Jathedar Giani Gurbachan Singh of accepting a “siropa” from a person who was declared “tankhaiya” (guilty of religious misconduct) by the Jathedar.

The Jathedar has, however, refuted the allegations.
Bhai Hardeep Singh Dibdiba of Bhai Bulaka Singh Sangharsh Morcha said that Giani Gurbachan Singh had termed eight members of an educational trust associated with Gurdwara Budha Johad in Rajasthan as guilty of religious misconduct early this year.
He stated the Jathedar had declared them “tankhaiya” under “immense pressure from the Sikh Sangat” on January 27 and had fixed February 13 to decide on the matter, but later no action was taken against them.
