The health of Jarnail Singh Brar, who is sitting on an indefinite fast outside state Congress chief Ashok Tanwar’s residence on the issue of a separate gurdwara body for Haryana, has started deteriorating. The police removed Brar from the dharna site and admitted him to General Hospital this evening.
Haryana Sikh Gurdwara Prabandhak Committee chief Jagdish Singh Jhinda announced today that Sikhs in the state would oppose the Congress in the upcoming parliamentary elections if the state government failed to accept their demand.
Brar, who is sitting on an indefinite fast since February 21, has lost 8 kg and is feeling weak, said other protesters. A doctor visited Brar today and examined his health.
The issue of a separate gurdwara panel for Haryana has been going on since 2001, when the HSGPC was set up with Jagdish Singh Jhinda as its president and Didar Singh Nalvi, who heading a parallel faction of the committee, as its general secretary.
“In fact, a separate gurdwara panel was not merely a demand. It as a legal right accorded to them under Section 72 (2) of the Punjab Reorganisation Act, 1966,” said Jhinda.
In the elections for the SGPC held in 2004, the HSGPC had won seven out of 11 seats in the state, posing a serious challenge to the Shiromani Akali Dal headed by Parkash Singh Badal.
Both Jhinda and Nalvi won their elections.
“Impressed by our success, the Congress, which was facing opposition from Sikhs since the 1984 riots, approached us. We never went to the party with our demand. The Congress sought our support for the 2005 Assembly elections on the promise that we will get a separate SGPC if the Congress came to power,” said Jhinda. But the demand is yet to be fulfilled.
With the parliamentary elections round the corner, the Jhinda faction has again started agitating outside Tanwar’s residence, while the Nalvi faction, supporting Brar’s fast, has announced to contest the poll under a newly constituted political outfit Haryana Janshakti Party.
