The Shiromani Gurwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) has decided to bear the cost of bringing the Sikhs facing threat to their lives in Afghanistan to India. The decision was taken during the SGPC meeting, chaired by its president Gobind Singh Longowal, at Chandigarh on Thursday 6th August.
It was observed that Sikhs living in Afghanistan were under constant attack and
their lives and dignity were not safe. The SGPC will provide the Afghan Sikhs
support to meet their needs once they arrive in India and help them settle
here.
