Chandigarh: Former Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) president Bibi Jagir Kaur is set to return to the Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) led by Sukhbir Singh Badal on November 13.
Kaur told the media that Sukhbir Badal would visit Begowal on November 13 and hold a meeting with party workers. Her remarks indicate that she is expected to rejoin the Akali Dal during the visit.
She said she had never been against Sukhbir Badal and described the Akali Dal as her “mother party”. Kaur also stressed the need to strengthen the regional party, saying it was important to build up their own political organisation.
Her expected return would mark a significant development in Punjab’s Akali politics, with the November 13 meeting in Begowal likely to be the occasion for her re-entry into the party.
