Fearing communal tension, the police and paramilitary forces today ensured tight security at the bhog ceremony of 20-year-old engineering student Jaspal Singh who was killed in police firing on March 29. Deputy Commissioner Siben. C, DIG (Border range) Ram Singh and SSP SK Kalia, who have been camping in the town for the last one week, today personally monitored the situation in Gurdaspur and Chorh Sidhwan village.

Speaking at the ceremony, Akal Takht Jatehdar Gurbachan Singh, who accorded the status of a "martyr" on the deceased and declared to put up his portrait at the Sikh Central Museum of the Golden Temple, demanded renaming of the Beant College of Engineering and Technology after Jaspal Singh.

Prominent among those present were SGPC president Avtar Singh Makkar, Dal Khalsa leader Kanwarpal Singh, former Akal Takht Jathedars Jasbir Singh Rode and Bhai Ranjit Singh, former MPs Simranjit Singh Mann and Manjit Singh Calutta.
