Akal Takht Pronounces Religious Sentences on Four Figures

The Akal Takht, the highest religious authority for Sikhs, has punished four people for doing wrong things.

Giani Gurbachan Singh, who was a leader before, had to say sorry for giving a wrong pardon in 2015.

Dr. Karamjit Singh, who is a university head, was told to do volunteer work and give away books because he talked about things that went against Sikh beliefs at an event.

Jaswant Jaffar, a government official, also had to do community service.

Virsa Singh Valtoha, a politician, was allowed to come back to his party after saying sorry for secretly recording a meeting and making false claims.

All of them had to do some religious tasks to make up for their mistakes.
