Model code of conduct should be imposed on Shiromani Gurudwara Prabandhak Committee (SGPC) as its term has already expired, a prominent Sikh leader demanded today.

"SGPC is largely known as mini parliament of Sikhs and as the term of its elected representatives has already expired, the present committee has no right to take any policy decision," president of Shiromani Akali Dal (Amritsar) Simaranjit Singh Maan told reporters here.

He said the Sikh Gurudwara Judicial Commission (SGJC) should immediately impose model poll code of conduct on the Committee.

"We want that SGJC should conduct free and fair election, which is its constitutional responsibility and impose the mandatory code of conduct", he added.
