Banda Bahadur museum nowhere near completion.

Baba Banda Singh Bahadur Memorial Museum, the foundation stone of which was laid by Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal during the tercentenary celebrations of Sirhind Fateh Diwas in 2010, is yet to see the light of the day.

Spread over 12 acres near the historic Gurdwara Fatehgarh Sahib, the multi-storey museum was to be constructed for Rs. 7 crore. Once completed, the museum would depict the life and achievements of the Sikh General, Baba Banda Singh Bahadur.

The building's construction has not moved beyond the third floor. And there has been no construction for the past couple of months.

Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) president Avtar Singh Makkar during the Shaheedi Jor Mela in December 2013 had claimed that the construction for the first phase would be completed by this year's Sirhind Fateh Diwas.
