New Delhi, Dec 29 : All India Shiromani Singh Sabha, a Sikh organization, has moved the Supreme Court seeking a uniform and non arbitrary implementation of policy for declaring public holiday.
The plea, filed through advocate Durga Dutt, sought promotion and development of Sikh religious and cultural ethos. The plea said the important birth anniversary of tenth Sikh Guru " Guru Gobind Singh", who is a religious icon for the Sikh community, so far has not been declared public holiday across the country, which has deeply aggrieved the Sikh organization.
