Nearly a fortnight after dissolving its organisational structure and suspending the principal drafting committee, the Akali Dal (Waris Punjab De) on Tuesday released a list of 28 newly appointed district presidents to strengthen the party’s organisational structure.The list, issued by the party headquarters, names leaders dedicated to the party as district presidents.The appointments have been made by the party’s senior leadership following suggestions received from party workers at various levels, from blocks to districts, over the past few days, the statement said.The statement further said the party’s senior leadership had made the appointments unanimously to ensure the smooth implementation of the party’s policies and programmes and to take them to the people.The leadership said the party aimed to establish a ‘Sarkar-e-Khalsa’ (Khalsa government) in 2027 to ensure proper representation of the Panth and Punjab and provide adequate employment opportunities to all sections of society, including farmers, labourers, shopkeepers, traders, MGNREGA workers, government employees and youth.The controversy erupted recently after the organisational structure of the political group, which is fighting a legal battle for registration, was dissolved.In a six-page letter submitted to working president Tarsem Singh on October 20, the committee raised serious questions about the party’s functioning and alleged activities of four individuals.It flagged alleged interference in party appointments by a government employee holding a high position, the provision of new Innova vehicles to office-bearers, and alleged links of certain individuals with the government and intelligence agencies.List of newly appointed district presidentsSr No.NameDistrict1Amandeep Singh DaduanaAmritsar Urban2Jaskaran Singh RiarAmritsar Rural3Pargat Singh VirkBathinda4Pavittar SinghFatehgarh Sahib5Nachhattar Singh Dabri KhanaFaridkot6Mahinder Singh BajwaJalandhar7Harjit Singh BhundarMansa8Harjit SinghBarnala9Sukhbir Singh BalberaPatiala10Avtar Singh KahangarhSangrur11Jagdev Singh ChaudaMalerkotla12Partap SinghFazilka13Umrao SinghPathankot14Chamkaur Singh DhunTarn Taran Sahib15Jagdeep Singh BhullarFerozepur16Jaswinder Singh BadalSri Muktsar Sahib17Rashpal SinghKapurthala18Kuldeep Singh SarsiniMohali19Manjinder Singh BalGurdaspur Rural20Gurpreet SinghGurdaspur21Amandeep Singh HasanpurLudhiana Rural22Rohit KhullarLudhiana Urban-123Karamjit SinghMoga24Advocate Sarabjit SinghRopar25Mandeep SinghHoshiarpur Urban26Manjinder Singh RaraHoshiarpur Rural27Amandeep Singh KhalsaMoga Urban28Gurpreet Singh PrinceLudhiana Urban-2
