SAS NAGAR, Punjab (December 10, 2013)—Bhai Gurbaksh Singh Khalsa has been discharged from the Chandigarh based PGI Hospital. His medical reports came out a few hours ago and everything was found to be normal. He has already arrived at Gurdwara Amb Sahib and was greeted by the Gursikh Sangat.
Although Bhai Sahib is physically really weak, he remains to be in chardi kala and is steadfast with his demands.
It was thought that the hunger strike had an impact on Bhai Sahib’s kidneys and fearing any consequences, he was released from the Ropar Jail and was admitted to the the hospital for further checks. All charges against him were withdrawan and in a statement made to local media, the Mohali SDM Lakhmir Singh stated that Bhai Gurbaksh Singh has been released because “there was no threat to peace.”
Although Bhai Gurbaksh Singh has suffered a lot, these recent developments may turn out to favour the Khalsa Panth, since the Goverment of Punjab no longer has a reason to re-arrest him.
