Jagir Kaur

Bibi Jagir Kaur (born 15 October 1954) was the president of the Shiromani Gurdwara Prabandhak Committee (SGPC). She was the first woman to be elected president of the SGPC, and has been elected a total of three times.

Ms. Kaur's name was put forward by the senior Akali leader, Sukhdev Singh Bhaur, and seconded by another SGPC member, Harswinder Singh. There were no other contenders. She had held the same post from March 1999 to November 2000, when she resigned amid allegations that she was involved in the murder of her daughter. She was later acquitted of all charges.

The presidential position became vacant since the death of the Akali stalwart, Gurcharan Singh Tohra, who served for 26 terms. He died in March 2004 after a brief illness.
