Jagir Kaur's Rejoining of Shiromani Akali Dal Postponed Due to Sukhbir Badal's Schedule
The planned re-induction of former SGPC president Jagir Kaur into the Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) was postponed due to the unavailability of party president Sukhbir Singh Badal, who was called to a meeting in New Delhi. Kaur, who had joined the breakaway SAD (Punar Surjit) faction, announced her decision to return to the Badal-led SAD, citing unmet objectives within the faction. A new date for her rejoining will be announced after the SGPC presidential elections on November 20.
