Mohali: Sardar Ajaypal Singh Brar, President of the Misl Satluj Party, has appealed to Punjabis to participate in large numbers in the ‘Bandi Singh Release March’ being organised on October 2 from Gurdwara Sri Fatehgarh Sahib to Takht Sri Damdama Sahib.

In a statement issued here, Sardar Brar said that the Misl Satluj Party would actively participate in the march. He said that the issue of the release of Bandi Singhs has remained pending for a long time and urged the governments concerned to consider the matter sensitively, keeping its legal, constitutional and humanitarian aspects in view.

He said that the continued detention of Bandi Singhs who have completed their sentences is a serious matter concerning justice and human rights. He added that the primary objective of the march is to draw the attention of the public and the government towards this issue and create greater public awareness about the demand for their release.

Sardar Brar said that the march would begin at Gurdwara Sri Fatehgarh Sahib and conclude at Takht Sri Damdama Sahib. Representatives of various Sikh organisations, religious institutions and members of the Sangat are expected to participate in the march.

He further stated that volunteers of the Misl Satluj Party are continuously disseminating information about the march and reaching out to members of the Sangat.

Sardar Brar appealed to Punjabis to participate in the march in a peaceful and disciplined manner and strengthen the demand for the release of the Bandi Singhs.
