The Sikh High Court, Akal Takht, has formally expelled Amrit Singh Chawla and Head Granthi Malik Singh from the Sikh community following a meeting.
The Akal Takht, the supreme Sikh religious authority, convened a meeting on Tuesday and issued a decision to expel Amrit Singh Chawla and Head Granthi Malik Singh from the Sikh community. The two individuals, both prominent figures within the sect, were removed from their positions following the council’s deliberations. The Akal Takht did not disclose the specific reasons for the expulsions, citing the need for confidentiality in matters of internal discipline. The decision is expected to have significant implications for the community’s leadership structure and may prompt further discussions on governance within the Sikh religious hierarchy.
