AMRITSAR: Facing excommunication from the Panth, renowned Sikh historian and former director of Sikh History Research Board of Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) H S Dilgeer , has warned of legal action against the high priests besides printing a new volume of Guru Granth Sahib. Besides, the letter declaring him 'guilty' didn't have quotes from the book and page where any 'objectionable' word was written.Dilgeer blamed Damdami Taksal chief Harnam Singh Dhumma for conspiring against him.
