[nanosecond]

Jalandhar, July 19 (PTI): The different constituents of the Panthic Morch today merged and formed a new party "Akali Dal" to be headed by former Punjab Speaker, Ravi Inder Singh

The party announced it will launch a movement to settle long pending issues, including the inter-State water dispute with Haryana, transfer of Chandigarh and other Punjabi speaking areas to Punjab and submit a memorandum to the Governor on August 13;

The party has been formed on the principles of the then Shiromani Akali Dal formed in 1920.

Earlier, addressing a convention organised at Gurudwara Guru Teg Bhadur here, the Convener of the erstwhile Panthic Morcha, Baba Sarabjot Singh Bedi, said the prime aim of the Akali Dal would be to ensure the defeat of the Shiromani Akali Dal headed by former Chief Minister, Parkash Singh Badal.

In an unanimous resolution adopted during the convention, it criticised Badal for promoting his family interests while ignoring the dedicated workers.

"Badal has promoted corruption during his stint as the Chief Minister and now he is trying to project registration of a case against him and family members by the Congress Government as a war against the Sikh community, which is highly deplorable," he said.

Badal should face trial in court instead of creating confusion among the masses to gain sympathy," the resolution said
