Sukhdev Singh Dhindsa

The Shiromani Akali Dal's disciplinary committee has expelled party patron Sukhdev Singh Dhindsa from primary membership due to his involvement in anti-party activities, including supporting expelled leaders. The committee, led by Chairman Balwinder Singh Bhundur, deemed Dhindsa's actions as undermining the party's constitution and traditions. Dhindsa allegedly aligned himself with a conspiracy aimed at weakening the party, and his attempts to reverse the expulsion of eight party members prompted the committee's decision. The members emphasized that indiscipline would not be tolerated and urged party supporters to reject opportunistic figures. The committee asserted that 98% of its members still support the current leadership under Sukhbir Singh Badal. This expulsion highlights the ongoing internal strife within the SAD and its commitment to maintaining party integrity.
