February 10 (press kli taquat bureau):
Peeved by the amendments to the Nanded Sikh Gurdwara Sachkhand Shri Hazur Abchalnagar Sahib Act, 1956, by the Maharashtra Government, a delegation of the SGPC today joined the protest at Nanded.
It is learnt that a large number of Sikhs, led by ‘Panj Pyaras’ (five beloved ones), carrying banners, marched to streets from Takht Sri Hazur Sahib shrine after performing ardas at the Hazur Sahib gurdwara and announced to hold a ‘morcha’ against this ‘anti-Sikh’ Act till its logical conclusion. Even shopkeepers downed shutters in Nanded markets as mark of protest. Later, the protesters submitted a memorandum to the office of the Nanded Collector.
