Amritsar, August 13

Amritsar MP Gurjeet Singh Aujla has written a letter to Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan seeking his intervention in the alleged harassment case of a Sikh girl in Pakistan.

He wrote that the Sikh girl, daughter of a gurdwara priest, was forcibly married to a Muslim youth after conversion. “Now, the Pakistan judiciary has also pronounced its verdict in favour of the Muslim youth. This incident has shaken me. I request you to resolve the issue in a fair manner or else I will be compelled to take up the issue on national and international forums so that speedy justice is ensured to the girl, who belongs to a minority community,” he said.
