The local administration and police are investigating this entire matter very closely so that the real conspiracy behind this security lapse can be exposed.
How this sensational incident happened in Gurudwara of Nanded
This entire sensational incident happened when Shiromani Akali Dal President Sukhbir Singh Badal along with his wife and MP Harsimrat Kaur Badal had reached to pay obeisance at Gurudwara Mata Sahib Kaur, situated at a distance of about fifteen kilometers from the historical place Takht Sachkhand Sri Huzoor Sahib in Nanded, Maharashtra. After visiting the Gurudwara with full faith and peace, when he was moving towards the Langar Hall, suddenly from among the crowd present there, a sixty to sixty-five year old man wearing blue Nihang clothes attacked him with a saber. In this sudden dangerous attack, Sukhbir Singh Badal got seriously injured in his right hand. The fortunate thing was that his security personnel, who were ready at the spot, intervened immediately and cautiously, due to which a major accident was averted. During this time, while trying to intervene, one of the security personnel also got injured in his hand. Immediately after the incident, the injured leader was admitted to a nearby private hospital, where he is undergoing treatment under the supervision of doctors and his condition is said to be completely out of danger at present.
Strict action by Maharashtra government and police administration
After this sudden and dangerous attack on SAD chief Sukhbir Singh Badal in the Gurudwara located in Nanded, Maharashtra, the entire police administration of the state has come on full alert mode. The accused person wearing Nihang clothes, who carried out the incident, was immediately arrested on the spot and the local police is continuously interrogating him strictly to find out whether there is any big conspiracy or any other person behind this attack. Taking cognizance of the seriousness of this entire matter, State Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis himself has immediately taken detailed information about the incident and has issued strict instructions to the Superintendent of Police (SP) of Nanded to conduct a thorough, impartial and prompt investigation into this entire incident. The administration is working to ensure that such security lapses do not happen again and the culprit is given the harshest punishment as per the law.
There has been a fatal attack on Akali Dal chief before also.
According to political experts and reports, this is not the first time that Shiromani Akali Dal chief Sukhbir Singh Badal has faced such deadly attacks. A few months before this, a dangerous attempt was made by firing on him during the service outside a Golden Temple, where a suspicious person present inside the Gurudwara made a malicious attempt to shoot him. However, even at that time his alert security personnel risked their lives to protect him and saved him safely. Such continuous security related incidents have once again raised big and serious question marks on the security arrangements of political bigwigs, due to which there is an atmosphere of deep concern among the Sikh community and political parties across the country.
