Expelled Shiromani Akali Dal rebels launch new party
Rebel Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) leaders, who were expelled last month for 'anti-party activities', on Sunday launched a new party with Khadoor Sahib MP Ranjit Singh Brahmpura as its President. Brahmpura said the aim of the new party, Shiromani Akali Dal (Taksali), will be to liberate Sikh religious institutions from the Badal family's grip.
