Punjab Congress president Amarinder Singh Raja Warring also expressed disappointment over the sacking of the Jathedars.”It is not hidden from anyone as to why the Jathedars have been sacked; because they had pronounced Sukhbir Badal guilty of religious misconduct and divested his father Parkash Singh Badal of the title of Fakhr-e-Qaum, ‘’ he pointed out.He alleged that it was vengeance against the highest temporal authority of Sikhs.“As a humble Sikh, while I feel sad, I condemn their sacking and hijacking of the SGPC by Sukhbir Badal”, he added.Warring noted that history was repeating itself and Sukhbir Badal does not appear to have learnt anything from it as he was repeatedly not only interfering in the affairs of the SGPC, but dictating the commands to the highest parliament of Sikhs for his personal interests.He observed, “sacking Akal Takhat Jathedar and the Jathedar of Keshgarh Sahib after sacking Jathedar of Takhat Damdama Sahib a month ago, is one of the saddest days in the contemporary Sikh history.’’
