Patiala district administration interfering in land row: SGPC

Patiala, June 28

SGPC chief Bibi Jagir Kaur today visited a property allegedly belonging to the Khalsa College Trust near Railway Crossing 24 and claimed the police and district administration were interfering in SGPC’s attempts at keeping possession of the land.

She said the trust owned 110 bighas and Mata Sahib Kaur Girls’ Khalsa College was constructed over 25 bighas. Some people had acquired a portion of the remaining land and started construction of plots, she claimed. “The administration and police are interfering in the matter and are not allowing us to keep possession of the land,” she said.

SDM Charanjit Singh said: “We are only maintaining law and order. Those who have documents of ownership should show these to us.” Meanwhile, on forced conversions in Kashmir, the SGPC chief said people should stick to the religion they were born in. — TNS
