Meanwhile, Giani Harpreet Singh has said that this issue will be taken up in the upcoming meeting of Five Singh Sahibans.
  Interacting with media, delegation members Bibi Soorbir Kaur and Bibi Mohinderjit Kaur informed that Bibi Baljit Kaur couldn’t appear before the Jathedar personally as she is suffering from pneumonia.
