Amritsar, January 16
Veteran SGPC member Puran Singh Josh (72), who was seriously injured in a car accident last year, died at Ajit Hospital here today.

Josh was an SGPC member for more than 20 years. He was considered a crusader against corruption in Sikh shrines and was a bachelor. He also remained executive member and member of various committees constituted by the SGPC.

Though Josh was elected on SAD ticket, he would always criticise its leaders for violating ‘maryada’. He had launched a crusade against SGPC chiefs Gurcharan Singh Tohra and Bibi Jagir Kaur.
