Chandigarh, June 26 (Reporter) The Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) on Wednesday alleged a "deep-rooted conspiracy" to set the state aflame again by disturbing the hard earned atmosphere of peace and communal harmony and blame it on Sikhs. “A dangerous and devious conspiracy is already at work for communal polarisation in Punjab for petty political gains. The old game is being played again to inject communal hatred and violence in the state and put the blame for it on Sikhs so as to vilify our youth as was done in the eighties,” said a resolution passed at a meeting of the SAD Working Committee. The Working Committee further emphasised that peace and communal harmony were prerequisites for progress and prosperity of the people of Punjab. In a separate and unanimous resolution, the Working Committee placed its full faith in and appreciation in the “determined and committed leadership of the party President Sukhbir Singh Badal”. It also authorised the president to reconstitute and restructure the party as per its constitution. “The Committee members also condemned attempts to tarnish the image of the President". Although there was a strong demand from members for “disciplinary action against some leaders who have been playing into the hands of the enemies of Panth and Punjab”, the party president counselled “patience, forbearance and a large hearted approach based on humility taught to us by the great Guru Sahiban towards all.“ After this, the Working Committee passed a resolution which said,”We are a fully democratic party with historic traditions for internal discussion. There is room for everyone’s views, even critical, on the party platform. So there is no justification for violating decorum and discipline to harm the party. The party appealed to “erring members” not to play the enemies’ game at a time when the Khalsa Panth, Punjab and the party "are already a target of anti-Sikh and anti-Punjab conspiracies which the members have themselves publicly spoken about in the past,” said the WC members. In another resolution, the party said it would further intensify its efforts towards achieving the goal of a truly federal structure in the country with genuine fiscal and administrative autonomy to the states. “India is a country, with diverse cultures, languages, religions and regions. Strong states mean a strong nation. The essence of India is diversity but it recognises unity while preserving this rich diversity," it said. The meeting also condemned incidents of attacks on Sikhs in the country and blamed it on “provocative communal utterances of important leaders in the ruling party, such as Kangana Ranaut. ”All these incidents can be a part of an ongoing conspiracy for communal polarisation”...////...
