Welcoming the development, DSGMC general secretary Manjinder Singh Sirsa said that the DSGMC would continue to fight for justice to the Sikhs who are undergoing sentences in different jails of the country who were convicted in cases registered against them during the turmoil.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The advisor of DSGMC&#8217;s legal cell Jaswinder Singh Jolly filed the petition before the Supreme Court under article 32 of the Constitution of India seeking intervention for issuing directions to the Central Government, State Governments and the union territories in our country for directing them to coordinate amongst themselves for ensuring formulation of \u201cuniform policies and guidelines\u201d for \u201cregular periodic assessment\u201d and \u201creview of the entire background, current status and present and past conduct of the convicts\u201d, including their conduct during the period the accused were on bail, who have been sentenced with punishment of life imprisonment which would be the basis of their release.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u201cWe have moved a step ahead in release of those prisoners who are suffering due to the days of turmoil of 1990s.
