The full story of the hand-grenade lifter-

The bomb lifter Gurshinder Singh alias Kaka said – I run a hawker of Satkar Kulfi in Darbar Sahib. When I started sweeping near the street, there was a bomb lying there. I picked up those bombs and caught Harpal Singh Baba. He told – where are you roaming with the bomb, it may explode.

I replied, if it would have exploded in the hands of the Sangat, that’s why I brought you and caught you. Here, even if the Sangat’s mobile or gold articles remain, I come and catch the incharge. Baba ji called the incharge Sahib.

Sir, we are illiterate people, I had little idea. I picked him up and brought him to Babaji. After 10 minutes the police came. We put the bomb outside, it could have exploded.
