Mahant Badal first invited dehdhari 'guru' Jagjit Sinh to participate in the 1999 tercentenary celebrations after having Panthic Jathedar, Bhai Ranjit Singh Ji removed and replaced by Badal's peon, Vedanti; who continues to remain silent on this serious issue.

This 'revival of the Namdharis' by the Badal regime is unprecedented and is a pure indication that Badal and his BJP/RSS masters are determined to desecrate the sovereignty of sacred Sikh values and institutions.
