Workers of Akali Dal here today burnt the effigy of Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal for using the image of Golden Temple on the cover page of its 'Youth Manifesto' superimposed with the election symbol of broom.
Akali leaders gathered at Miri Piri chowk and raised slogans against Kejriwal and other Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leaders.
Haryana Akali Dal spokesman Sant Singh Kandhari while addressing the gathering said this act of AAP had hurt the sentiments of Sikh community.
He alleged that Kejriwal was playing with the sentiments of Sikh for political benefit and the Sikh community of Punjab and Haryana will not forgive AAP and will teach lesson in the coming Punjab's Assembly elections.
