Bibi Jagir Kaur rejoined the Shiromani Akali Dal in the presence of party chief Sukhbir Badal at Begowal here on Thursday.

Party spokesperson Daljit Cheema formally announced her re-entry into the party.

Kaur said she is joining unconditionally. “I was Akali, I am Akali, I will remain Akali,” she said while urging Badal to pardon her in case she had used some harsh words in the past.
