DS­GMC lead­er­ship spills over with no end in sight. It brings out the weak­nesses of the Delhi Sikh Gur­d­wara Act as well as the non­cha­lance of the Sikhs in Delhi bar­ring a few small noises by so­cial ac­tivists.

When will the next ex­ec­u­tive com­mit­tee of the DS­GMC be held? Who will be the next pres­i­dent? Are the cor­rup­tion charges against Man­jit Singh GK only? Are both Man­jit Singh GK and Man­jin­der Singh Sirsa putting up a brave face as a face sav­ing strat­egy?

Since the tem­po­rary dis­so­lu­tion of the DS­GMC ex­ec­u­tive com­mit­tee two weeks ago, Man­jit Singh GK is in­com­mu­ni­cado. Man­jin­der Singh Sirsa and Harmeet Singh Kalkaji are run­ning the “show.”

A no­tice for a meet­ing as per the di­rec­tions of the Delhi Sikh Gur­d­wara Par­band­hak Com­mit­tee was an­nounced to be held on 30 De­cem­ber yes­ter­day but was sud­denly put off within a few hours.

Sources tell WSN that Man­jin­der Singh Sirsa has been pon­der­ing over the pro­vi­sions of the Delhi Sikh Gur­d­wara Act to plan his next moves. The Shi­ro­mani Akali Dal is fully in­volved with meet­ings with mem­bers of the DS­GMC hav­ing been held at the Delhi res­i­dence of Akali Mem­ber Par­lia­ment Prem Singh Chan­du­ma­jra.  It is also learnt that Sukhbir Singh Badal too had meet­ings with some DS­GMC ex­ec­u­tive mem­bers in Sirhind.

The Badal Dal won the DS­GMC elec­tions on an anti-cor­rup­tion plank against Delhi Akali Dal led by Paramjit Singh Sarna, but now it is it­self em­broiled in var­i­ous cor­rup­tion charges. Paramjit Singh Sarna has sought fresh elec­tions to the gen­eral house of the DS­GMC as the lead­er­ship stale­mate does not seem to be end­ing.

DS­GMC-run in­sti­tu­tions –schools, col­leges and hos­pi­tals still look up to their po­lit­i­cal lead­er­ship for sup­port and pa­tron­age, with many fac­ing a cash crunch and a strong bold lead­er­ship deficit.

In the house of 46 mem­bers meant to man­age the af­fairs of the his­tor­i­cal and other af­fil­i­ated Gur­d­waras in Delhi, who will the least dis­hon­est is the ques­tion that the Badal lead­er­ship is look­ing at. DS­GMC has come to a stand­still.
