There is a deepening crisis within the Sikh community—centered on the control and integrity of Akal Takht Sahib.
On March 22, 2025, at Gurdwara Sacramento Sikh Society (Bradshaw), Harinder Singh delivered a powerful and timely talk—in Panjabi—on what must be done to make Akal Takht Sahib truly azad—free from the grip of political parties, institutions, and jathebandis.

Talk is in Panjabi
