At present there are 33 members in the Gurudwara
Prabandhak Committee, out of which 28 are being elected directly by
elections among the local Gurudwara delegates and rest of five are nominated
by these elected members.The five nominated members come from the different
categories viz. one from educated mass (like doctor, advocate , engineer
etc.) three come from Kar Seva, and the rest one come from Representative
board of Uttarakhand Sikhs.
From 1998 due to disputes among different Local Sikh Groups, some of them
appealed in the Court for the different reasons. As a result, currently (as of
this writing in Nov. 2008) the GPC has been replaced by a five member committee
by the order of High Court and the head of the management committee (Receiver)
is the D.M. (District Magistrate ) of Distt. Udham Singh Nagar, Uttarakhand. The
D. M. appoints a Manager for the management of Gurudwara and related properties.
This is a temporary arrangement until a new GPC comes in existence after a
proper elections.
