Anandpur Sahib Resolution

The Anandpur Sahib Resolution was a statement with a list of demands made by a Punjabi Sikh political party, the Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD), in 1973. It was first presented by the Akali Dal on 16–17 October 1973 and advocated for political, religious, economic, and social reforms and demands. It would later be publicly revealed and endorsed as a 1978 Akali Dal conference in Ludhiana. The resolution stressed upon geographical concerns and state-autonomy. The document contained propositions that in some areas were semi-autonomous and others where it relied upon the central government (Sikhs in the army and central-government services).
