March 26th, 2012 - 10:40 pm ICT by IANSNew Delhi, March 26 (IANS) Pakistan’s Deputy Attorney General Muhammad Khurshid Khan paid a quiet visit to one of Delhi’s famous gurdwaras, leaving officials of the Delhi Sikh Gurdwara Management Committee (DSGMC) waiting for him all day.
“I received a call from Khan Saturday saying he wants to visit Rakabganj the next day and do voluntary service. I asked him to come around 4 p.m. but he never turned up,” DSGMC chief Paramjit Singh Sarna told IANS.
He denied having any idea of Khan visiting the Rakabganj gurdwara, which is also the head office of DSGMC — the body in-charge of all gurdwaras in the capital.
According to media reports, Khan, in India as part of a delegation to attend a legal conference, visited Rakabganj Sunday noon and did voluntary shoe service.
“A delegation of Pakistan Supreme Court Bar Council was in India to attend a conference. We have no idea about their schedule,” said an official of the Pakistan High Commission.
