AMBALA, Haryana—With no solution in sight for the release of Sikh political prisoners, Bhai Gurbaksh Singh Khalsa has ended his 2nd hunger strike after 64 days. Bhai Gurbaksh Singh Khalsa was confined at the Civil Hospital in Ambala under tight security since he was brought here for medical treatment.

In the past few days, Bhai Gurbaksh Singh was kept isolated from his supporters at Lakhnaur Sahib, including Bhai Gurpiar Singh and Gurpreet Singh Guri. Even now as Bhai Gurbaksh Singh has been discharged from the hospital in Ambala, Bhai Guri and others remain under police scrutiny. They were not allowed to enter Haryana earlier today before Bhai Khalsa finished his hunger strike.

Bhai Gurbaksh Singh was taken to his residence by his son Bhai Jujhar Singh and other family members. The hunger strike was ended by members of the Delhi Sikh Gurdwara Management Committee members who had also visited Bhai Gurbaksh Singh during his last days at Gurdwara Lakhnaur Sahib.

Jatha Shaheedan (UK) passed a statement stating that “if it wasn’t for Bhai Gurbaksh’s hunger strikes no one would have known about Sikh prisoners and so much pressure would have never been built.”

Earlier today, ardas was performed at Takht Sri Hazoor Sahib for chardi kala of Bhai Gurbaksh Singh Khalsa and for the release of Sikh political prisoners.
