SAD (Sanyukt) chief and ex-Union Minister Sukhdev Dhindsa, while objecting to the appointment of a non-Sikh as the MD of Punjab & Sind Bank (PSB), has appealed to the Centre to only appoint a Sikh to the top post.
He said the bank was established in 1908 as an independent bank of the Sikhs and after Independence, the Centre had assured Sikh leaders only a member of the community would be appointed to its top post. Till date, only Sikhs had been appointed as the MD, Dhindsa added.
