Speaking after a man tried to shoot ex-Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) chief Sukhbir Singh Badal at Amritsar's Golden Temple, SAD leader Balwinder Singh Bhunder said, "This is the place of Waheguru, He protects us." "'Seva' will continue. We trust the Almighty," he stated. Badal is offering 'seva' under religious punishments pronounced for him by Akal Takht.
