Chandigarh:  In order to put to rest the raging issue in which a Class 9th text book published by Maharashtra Education Board has termed Sant Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale as a ‘terrorist’, the Shiromani Gurudwara Prabandhak Committee (SGPC) chief Prof Kirpal Singh Badungar in a press note has strongly condemned highly insidious move of the Maharashtra  education board.

While speaking on the issue SGPC chief stated that ” Sant Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale is credited for his immense contribution in the field of preaching Sikh values and ethics. He fought and struggled for the just demands and rights of the Sikhs and worked for universal welfare as propagated by Sikhi”.
