After Assassination Attempt, Sukhbir Badal Performs ‘Seva’ at Anandpur Sahib Amid Tight Security
Anandpur Sahib: In a display of resilience and devotion, former Shiromani Akali Dal chief Sukhbir Singh Badal performed ‘seva’ at Takht Kesgarh Sahib in Punjab’s Rupnagar district on Thursday. This act of service comes a day after a former Khalistani terrorist attempted to shoot him at the Golden Temple in Amritsar.
Badal, who is still under Z+ security cover, arrived at the holy site escorted by a team of security personnel. Adorned in the traditional blue ‘sewadar’ uniform, Badal was pictured holding a spear while performing duty at the entrance of the gurdwara.
The incident at the Gurudwara Saffron comes after the Supreme Temporal Authority of Sikhs, the Akal Takht, mandated Badal to perform ‘seva’ as penance. The
Akal Takht instructed Badal to perform the service as atonement for "mistakes" committed by the SAD government during its tenure from 2007 to 2017.
In addition to the Golden Temple, Badal will perform seva at Takht Damdama Sahib, Darbar Sahib专辑 in Muktsar and Takht Fatehgarh Sahib for two days at each location.
The attack at the Golden Temple was a dramatic interruption to Badal’s second day of penance. A former Khalistani terrorist tried to shoot him at close range but was swiftly apprehended by plainclothes police officers.
In response to the worrying incident, stringent security measures were in place during Badal’s visit to Takht Kesgarh Sahib, Rupnagar. Police deployed heavily armed officers with a heightened sense of security alert and surveillance was broadly increased throughout the temple and surrounding areas. Several
What are some common techniques used for coding and analyzing qualitative interview data?
## Interview: Transcribing and Analyzing Qualitative Data
**News Anchor:** Welcome back. Today we’re talking about qualitative research, specifically interviewing and analyzing those interviews. With us is Dr. Emily Carter, a sociologist specializing in qualitative methods. Dr. Carter, thanks for joining us.
**Dr. Carter:** It’s my pleasure.
**News Anchor:** So, you conduct a lot of interviews in your research. Can you tell us a bit about the process, particularly what happens *after* the interview is over?
**Dr. Carter:** Absolutely. Once the interview is done, the real work begins! The first step is transcription, which involves creating a written record of everything that was said. It’s meticulous work, but it’s crucial for accurate analysis [[1](https://www.scribbr.com/methodology/transcribe-interview/)].
**News Anchor:** And then what? How do you make sense of all that transcribed data?
**Dr. Carter:** That’s where coding comes in. It involves identifying key themes and concepts within the interviews and labeling them with specific codes or keywords. For example, if a participant talks about “understanding their customers,” I might code that phrase under the theme of “customer relations.”
**News Anchor:** Sounds like a very detailed process. What’s the goal of all this coding and analysis?
**Dr. Carter:** The ultimate goal is to gain a deep understanding of the experiences and perspectives of the people we interviewed. By identifying recurring themes and patterns in their responses, we can uncover insights that might not be apparent through quantitative methods alone.
**News Anchor:** Fascinating. Dr. Carter, thank you so much for sharing your expertise with us today.
