This needs to be collected and action taken to get these restored to the Gurdwaras. To settle these problem and we should have at least five teams consisting of dedicated and committed [LIST] [*]First team o Researchers to identify the Gurdwaras burnt, demolished or converted which need attention. [*]The second team to identify the land associated with all the Gurdwaras including the land usurped. [*]The third team of Kar Sevaks who construct the demolished/burnt Gurdwaras [*]The fourth team should be of expert advocates at High Courts and Supreme Court level to fight the cases of demolished, burnt and converted Gurdwaras and getting the occupied lands back. [*]Fifth team should be the team of coordinators who coordinate the administration of evacuation and reconstruction of all the above Gurdwaras and to arrange for the funds needed.
