My personal take on the situation is that it is the political power play at its best!
For the past few years now, the AKJ (Akhand Kirtan Jatha) & Damdami Taksal have been vying to CONTROL the Akal Takht/SGPC by having their 'persons' as Jathedars there. So far Harnam Singh Duma of Damdami Taksal (who sympathizes with the RSS) with the backing of BADALS is in control not only of AKAL TAKHT, but SGPC in every sense of the word! Now the Jathedars have 'captured' Baldev Singh of AKJ for the Badals!
There is no 'specified' budget set for such parchar at the level they have envisioned. Dividing Punjab into three regions with names like Majha, Malwa and Doaba will promote more separation of Majhal, Malwai, Doabia Sikhs ! Sure they could come-out with better synonyms!
Will they consider/select/appoint only duly qualified Sikhs for the 'censor board' or just their 'political friends'? They will only 'censor' the material of their so called opponents, not their friends. Their past practices are a good indication of the future actions! The Badals will never allow an open & independent operation of the SAD, SGPC or of the Akal Takht!
Avatar Singh Makar has stated on several occasions in the past that SGPC is the over-riding organization of the Sikhs NOT the Akal Takht. Changing the Nanakshai calendar is just one example only. So how can the Jathedars direct the SGPC on any issue now ! SGPC has never paid any heed to the previous pronouncements of the Akal Takht.
I strongly feel the hand of Sukhbir Singh Badal behind this shenanigan to tighten his control over the Sikh affairs for 'votes & notes" !
