Summary:
Amritsar, Mar 3 (PTI) SGPC chief Harjinder Singh Dhami on Thursday accused the AAP government in the national capital of becoming an obstruction in the release of Davinder Pal Singh Bhullar, a 1993 Delhi bomb blast case convict.
The president of Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) said the deferment of the release of Bhullar by the sentence review board (SRB) of the Delhi government on Wednesday is “extremely unfortunate”.
The SRB headed by Delhi Home Minister Satyendar Jain on Wednesday had deferred the decision on the early release of Bhullar, who is currently lodged in the Amritsar jail.
Dhami appealed to the Centre to intervene in the matter.
"Prime Minister Narendra Modi should issue an order to the Delhi government in this regard so that the Sikhs who are lodged in jails for decades could be released soon.
In case of the release of Bhullar, the Government of India should issue strict instructions to the Delhi government," he said.
