Last month, Rajoana came out of jail briefly after nearly 26 years to attend his father’s bhog ceremony, had appealed to the people to vote for the Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) in the upcoming Punjab polls and asked ‘sangat’ to vote against the Congress to punish them for the ‘1984 anti-Sikh riots and murders of thousands of innocent Sikh youths.’

Rajoana had said at the bhog ceremony of his father ‘Meri rooh akali, mera dal akali, main akali.. iss dharti tey sarkaar akali..’ (My soul is Akali, my heart is Akali, I am Akali.. there should be an Akali government on this earth).

Rajoana further added that “Hindu, Muslim, Sikh, Christian ekta da prateek Akali, saarey dharman de satkar da prateek Akali, sab saanjhi baalta da sandesh Akali, meri rooh Akali, mera dil Akali, main Akali.. haan main akali.. chahunda haan iss dharti te sarkaar Akali..”

“Akali Dal is our own party and it is representative of our panth. End Congress’ rule,” said Rajoana, while thanking the SAD and the SGPC for the ‘legal help’ in his case.
