New Delhi: Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) spokesperson and Delhi Sikh Gurdwara Management Committee (DSGMC) president Manjinder Singh Sirsa on Monday said that Union Home Minister Amit Shah has assured the DSGMC of the safe return of two Sikh girls to their families who were allegedly abducted, forcibly converted and married off in Srinagar.
Addressing the media, the DSGMC president also said that Union Home Minister will soon meet the Jammu and Kashmir Sikh delegation to discuss the concerns of the minority. "Home Minister Amit Shah has assured us about the safety of minority Sikh girls in the Valley and that the girls would be soon returned to their families. He has given time to meet Jammu and Kashmir Sikh delegation soon to discuss the minority's concerns," said Sirsa.
He also appealed to the central government to implement the anti-conversion law in Jammu and Kashmir similar to the one in Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh.
A Sikh delegation also met with Jammu and Kashmir Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha and sought the safe return of girls. Earlier on Sunday, Sirsa also led a Sikh delegation to Kashmir and held a protest with the Sikh community through the roads of Srinagar.
