Sukhbir Singh Badal Suffers Minor Foot Fracture in Amritsar

Shiromani Akali Dal chief Sukhbir Singh Badal sustained a minor hairline fracture on his right foot in Amritsar. After visiting the Akal Takht and discovering the injury, he received treatment at Guru Ramdas Institute of Medical Sciences. Despite the injury, Badal resumed his schedule shortly thereafter.

Sukhbir Singh Badal, the chief of the Shiromani Akali Dal, experienced a minor mishap on Wednesday, resulting in a hairline fracture. The incident occurred following his visit to the Akal Takht, intended to meet with the Jathedar.

After the injury, Badal was swiftly moved by his security team to the Guru Ramdas Institute of Medical Sciences, where the fracture was confirmed. However, he remained upbeat, with party leader Daljit Singh Cheema assuring the public that Badal was in good spirits and continued his commitments after receiving medical care.

Badal's visit to the Akal Takht was motivated by his request for an early hearing, as he was previously declared 'tankhaiya' by the Jathedar for alleged mistakes made by his party and government between 2007 and 2017. However, the Jathedar was not present at the time of his visit.
