Amritsar-MLA Sukhpal Singh Khaira addressed the gathering at Akal Takht Sahib, where he presented a firm and critical view on current political developments in Punjab. During his speech, he emphasised the need for greater accountability in governance and stressed that elected representatives must remain answerable to the people as well as to religious and moral institutions.
Khaira highlighted concerns over legislative transparency and alleged that democratic procedures in the Punjab Assembly have been weakened in recent years. He stated that laws are often passed without adequate discussion or proper circulation of drafts among MLAs, which, according to him, undermines the essence of democracy.
He further urged the leadership at Akal Takht Sahib to continue guiding society on principles of justice and fairness, stating that moral oversight remains essential when political systems fail to uphold public trust. His remarks were received with attention from the gathering, reflecting the sensitivity of the issues raised.
