The Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) will hold its annual meeting on November 20 to elect new office-bearers. The SGPC has decided to install a portrait of slain anti-drug activist Parvinder Singh Jhota in the Central Sikh Museum at the Golden Temple, honoring his efforts against drug abuse in Punjab. The committee condemned Jhota's killing and criticized the state government's handling of the drug problem. It also opposed police actions against protesters in Mansa, demanding FIR withdrawal and release of arrested youths.
