With former Akal Takht Jathedar Giani Harpreet Singh backing the corruption allegations raised by Golden Temple head granthi Giani Raghbir Singh and questioning the SGPC’s response, the controversy is no longer about one statement but about trust, transparency and control within Sikh institutions. As the issue gathers public attention, the key question is whether the moment will be handled as a disciplinary matter or as an opportunity for accountability. Is the SGPC protecting institutional discipline or does the situation call for a transparent probe to restore the faith of the sangat and prevent the crisis from growing further ?
पूर्व अकाल तख्त जत्थेदार ज्ञानी हरप्रीत सिंह द्वारा श्री हरिमंदिर साहिब के हेड ग्रंथी ज्ञानी रघबीर सिंह के आरोपों का समर्थन करने के बाद एस.जी.पी.सी. विवाद अब केवल बयानबाजी तक सीमित नहीं रहा, बल्कि भरोसे, पारदर्शिता और सिख संस्थानों की विश्वसनीयता का मुद्दा बन गया है। जैसे-जैसे यह मामला संगत और सार्वजनिक चर्चा में बढ़ रहा है, बड़ा सवाल यह है कि इसे अनुशासन के नजरिए से देखा जाएगा या जवाबदेही के मौके के रूप में। क्या एस.जी.पी.सी. संस्थागत अनुशासन बनाए रखने की कोशिश कर रही है या संगत का विश्वास बनाए रखने के लिए पारदर्शी जांच ही इस समय की जरूरत है ?

Is Bikram Singh Majithia’s rising visibility reinforcing Sukhbir Singh Badal’s leadership and strengthening the SAD’s comeback or will the real challenge be ensuring that personal ambition never overshadows collective leadership as the party regains ground ?
