Shiromani Akali Dal Forms Future Agenda Amidst Rebellion

Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) plans a three-day delegate session at Sri Anandpur Sahib in November to chart its long-term future agenda amid internal rebellion. The core committee, led by Sukhbir Singh Badal, will discuss crucial issues including health, education, and federalism. Recent expulsions and political challenges also addressed.

Amidst rising internal dissent, the Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) has scheduled a three-day delegate session at Sri Anandpur Sahib for the first week of November, aiming to shape its long-term future agenda.

Presided over by party president Sukhbir Singh Badal, the decision was made during a core committee meeting. The session will address critical matters such as injustices faced by Punjab, health, education, environment, the non-resident Indian community, and strategies to fortify federalism, as stated by party leader Daljit Singh Cheema.

The announcement comes in the wake of a faction of rebel leaders convening for electing new party officials. This move follows the party's poor performance in Punjab's Lok Sabha elections, leading key members to demand Sukhbir Badal's resignation.
