Sorry for remarks against Jagir Kaur: Dhami to panel

SGPC president Harjinder Singh Dhami today appeared before the Punjab State Women’s Commission and apologised for his remarks against SAD leader Bibi Jagir Kaur recently.

Commission Chairperson Raj Lalli Gill said Dhami’s advocate had filed a letter and he came here to meet me and regretted his remarks. “I seek an apology for my remark against Bibi Jagir Kaur and entire women section. In this context, I will abide by the orders of the commission,” the letter read.

Gill said she had spoken to Bibi Jagir Kaur earlier who had also expressed her displeasure over it.

“Mere apologising does not absolve him of the act,” Gill said, adding that she would discuss the reply furnished by Dhami with the commission and proceed further in the matter accordingly.
