Sikh Gurdwaras Legislation : All India Prespective

Description

Sikh Gurdwaras Legislation : All India Prespective by Dr. Kashmir Singh is a detailed legal and historical study of the movement for an all-India legislative framework governing Sikh Gurdwaras. The book traces the demand for common and uniform management of Sikh religious shrines and examines the political and institutional developments surrounding this issue.

The study covers the formation of the Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC), legislative efforts beginning in the twentieth century, drafts of an All India Gurdwaras Bill, the Anandpur Sahib Resolution and the Dharam Yudh Morcha. It also evaluates the arguments for and against all-India legislation.
