When the shoe flew towards Indian Home Minister Palaniappan Chidambaram's face, the thrower's face was turned away from the cameras but that gait had to belong to my friend, Sardar Jarnail Singh.
Said Jathedar Akal Takht Gyani Gurbachan Singh: “I feel Jarnail was not wrong, since what he did was the out come of injured sentiments. Here I would make it clear that the Sikh community would always stand with him.”
Local television channels identified the journalist as Jarnail Singh, a veteran reporter with one of India's largest newspapers, the Hindi daily Dainik Jagran.
