Days after he attended the engagement ceremony of Aam Admi Party leader Raghav Chadha and actress Parineeti Chopra, Punjab’s Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee, has removed acting Jathedar of Akal Takht Sahib Giani Harpreet Singh.  
 
The Gurdwara governing body has now appointed Giani Raghubir Singh as the new Jathedar. Raghubir Singh is at present the Jathedar of Kesgarh Sahib. 
 
The decision was taken during an emergency meeting of the governing panel’s executive body. The chief of the Gurdwara panel Harjinder Singh Dhami said Harpreet Singh himself expressed his wish to relinquish the charge. 
 
Harpreet Singh held the officiating charge as the Jathedar of the Akal Takht since 2018.
