Explanation:

Bibi Jagir Kaur, the first woman to be elected SGPC president more than 20 years ago, has made a comeback and has been elected as the new SGPC president.

The Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (or SGPC) is an organization in India responsible for the management of gurdwaras, Sikh places of worship in three states of Punjab, Haryana, and Himachal Pradesh and union territory of Chandigarh.
SGPC also administers Darbar Sahib in Amritsar.
The SGPC is governed by the chief minister of Punjab.
The SGPC manages the security, financial, facility maintenance and religious aspects of Gurdwaras as well as keeping archaeologically rare and sacred artifacts, including weapons, clothes, books and writings of the Sikh Gurus.
It was formed in 1920.
The first and the only woman and also incumbent President of SGPC is Jagir Kaur .

Hence both statements are correct.
