27 April
On this day in 1925

Goverment lifted all risteriction on Akhand paths in Nabha

A final jatha of 101 special Shaheedi Akalis marched from Akal Takhat Amritsar towards Jaito. While this jatha was on its way to Jaito, the government abolished all restriction on Akhand Paaths. This represented a major victory for the Sikhs. Upon reaching Jaito, this jatha conducted Akhand paths on behalf of all previously interrupted paaths and completed the process on August 6, 1925, two years after the agitation was initiated. In all sixteen Shahidi Jathas participated in this struggle after from one from Bengal and another from Canada.
