Makkar head of Patna Sahib panel again

Former SGPC president Avtar Singh Makkar has again been authorised to head the Takht Patna Sahib Gurdwara committee after a double Bench of the Patna High Court pronounced its verdict in his favour. Makkar had challenged the recent HC judgment that had handed over the reins of the committee to SAD (Delhi) leader Harvinder Singh Sarna.

“The double Bench nullified the September 3 meeting at which Sarna was elected president of the committee and upheld the order of the Patna Sessions Court,” Makkar said. Sarna said, “Though the committee’s administrative powers have been delegated to the Makkar group, the issue will be reviewed on November 29.
