Amarjeet Singh :अपनी पगड़ियों को काटकर मास्क बनवाए, फिर गरीबों में बांटे


लॉकडाउन के चलते कई लोगों को काफी परेशानी का सामना करना पड़ा है. वहीं, लॉकडाउन में लोग एक-दूसरे की मदद के लिए आगे आए. व्यक्तिगत स्तर पर लोगों ने काम किया. मसलन किसी ने प्रवासी मजदूरों को अपने घर से खाना बनवाकर फिर खिलाया, किसी ने अपने आसपास के लोगों की मदद की. तो कोई बेजुबान जानवरों के लिए आगे आया

जब कोरोना का दौर चला तो इलाके में सैनिटाइजर और मास्क की कमी होगईइलाके की सारी दुकानें लॉकडाउन के वजह से बंद थीकपड़ा उपलब्धनहीं हो रहा था.ऐसे में हिमाचल केमंडी जिला के सुंदरनगर के कनैड गांव के निवासी सरदार अमरजीत सिंह ने जरूरतमंदों की मदद के लिए अपनी 11 नई पगड़ियों को काटकर मास्क बनवाए और उन्हें गरीबों जरूरतमंदों को बांटे.
वो अभी भी नया कपड़ा खरीदकर लोगों में मास्क बांट रहे हैं. वह जिले के रेडक्रास सोसायटी के सर्व वालंटियर भी हैं, लोगों की मदद के लिए वो हमेशा आगे आते रहते हैं.हमीरपुर से मंडी लाते समय जब कोरोना के वजह से व्यक्ति की मृत्यु हुई थी, तो उन्होंने और उनके साथियों ने ही अंतिम संस्कार में भी अहम भूमिका निभाई थी.
अमरजीत सिंह समय-समय पर समाज के प्रति अपना योगदान देते रहते  हैं.

DSGMC: त्रिपुरा के मुख्यमंत्री बिपलब देव द्वारा सिखों के खिलाफ दिये बयान की तीखी प्रतिक्रिया

DSGMC President: Mr. Manjinder Singh Sirsa :मुख्यमंत्री सिखों के खिलाफ बोलने से पहले अपनी जानकारी बढ़ाएं I
नई दिल्ली, 21 जुलाई 2020ः दिल्ली सिख गुरुद्वारा प्रबंधक कमेटी के अध्यक्ष और शिरोमणि अकाली दल के राष्ट्रीय प्रवक्ता स. मनजिंदर सिंह सिरसा ने कहा है कि त्रिपुरा के मुख्यमंत्री बिपलब कुमार देब ने जो सिखों के लिए शब्द प्रयोग किये हैं कि वह बहादुर भी हैं , दरिया दिल भी हैं पर दिमाग की कमी है यह एक बहुत ही एतराज़योग्य और निंदनीय बयान है।

यहां जारी किए एक बयान में स. सिरसा ने कहा कि हैरानी वाली बात है त्रिपुरा के मुख्यमंत्री ने बिना कुछ सोचे समझे बियान दे दिया है। उन्होंने कहा कि वास्तिवकता यह है कि अगर दिमाग की कमी है तो स्वंय उनमें है क्योंकि किसी मुख्यमंत्री को बोलने से पहले हज़ार बार सोचना चाहिए। उन्होंने कहा कि मुख्यमंत्री को सिखों के बारे में शायद जानकारी नहीं है।
अगरतला प्रेस क्लब में आयोजित एक कार्यक्रम में मैंने अपने पंजाबी और जाट भाइयों के बारे मे कुछ लोगों की सोच का जिक्र किया था। मेरी धारणा किसी भी समाज को ठेस पहुंचाने की नहीं थी। मुझे पंजाबी और जाट दोनों ही समुदायों पर गर्व है। मैं खुद भी काफी समय तक इनके बीच रहा हूँ।

स. सिरसा ने कहा कि उन्हें अभी जानकारी मिली है कि मुख्यमंत्री ने टविट कर माफी मांगी है पर अच्छा होता अगर वह सिखों के बारे में कुछ भी उल्ट कहने से पहले सिखों के बारे में अच्छी तरह पढ़ लेते और जानकारी लेते । उन्हांेने कहा कि अच्छा होगा कि अगर वह मुख्यमंत्री की कुर्सी छोड़ कर पहले सिखों के बारे में जानकारी लेकर अपने ज्ञान में बढ़ौतरी करें।

स. सिरसा ने कहा कि इस देश के महान लोगों में बुद्धि की कमी नहीं है पर हमें समझने वालों की बुद्धि में कमी है। उन्होंने कहा कि सिखों ने जहां आज़ादी के संघर्ष में सब से अधिक योगदान डाला है वहीं शिक्षा के स्तर पर भी सब से अधिक योगदान दिया है जिससे शायद मुख्यमंत्री परिचित नहीं है।

दिल्ली सिख गुरुद्वारा प्रबंधक कमेटी के अध्यक्ष ने त्रिपुरा के मुख्यमंत्री सहित सिखों के खिलाफ ऐसी सोच रखने वालों को चेतावनी दी है कि वह सिख भाईचारे के बारे में कुछ भी बोलने से पहले अच्छी तरह जानकारी प्राप्त कर लें क्योंकि सिख ना सिर्फ दुनिया की सब से बहादुर, दिलेर और रहमदिल कौम है बल्कि योग्यता में भी सिखों की कोई बराबरी नही हैं चाहे सिख कौम सभी धर्मों के लोगों का आदर करती है।

Harsimrat Kaur Badal :Letter to Sikkim CM to Save Sikkim's Historic Gurudwara Gurudongmar Sahib

Sikkim's Historic Gurudwara Gurudongmar Sahib

Copy of Letter to Sikkim CM Prem Singh

Miscreants are attempting to tamper with status quo of Sikkim's historic Gurudwara Gurudongmar Sahib, despite Supreme Court orders to protect it.  Harsimrat Kaur Badal has written to Sikkim CM Prem Singh Tamang to look into the matter & do the needful for it being deeply attached to Sikh sentiment.



Pavitar Singh :Always Do Your Part in Vocalizing Discrimination To Bring About Change in Society

Image may contain: text

Update :

The manager of the agency called me up and discussed the matter in detail. She apologized and acknowledged that her colleague's actions were uncalled for and the whole situation on her end could have been handled better. I had a heartfelt conversation with the manager for her to understand the gravity of the matter.

The agent has since issued an official apology to me with the manager and director in the loop and the company has also accepted my offer to have a scheduled online session to learn about Sikhism, the significance of the turban and every individual's right to practice our religion in workplaces according to the constitution of Singapore regardless of race, language and religion.
                      Pavitar Singh
I have also offered a free of charge training session to the agency on how they can better approach prospective clients and candidates whilst being sensitive to one's religious practices and background. They are going to schedule it with me soon.

I still stand by my decision to not reveal names because smear campaigning is never a solution and it destroys lives. As seen in this letter of apology, the agent is a mother of 2 kids and I am unknown to her personal situation. Had I revealed names, her job could be on the line thus affecting the stability of her family.

There has been a lot of talk about how her name and the agency's name should be released to name and shame them. However, it is unlike me to shame someone, goes against my morals and the very teachings of my religion.

The whole point of sharing my experience was to highlight the prevalent decimation in our country and the importance of combating it effectively.

By taking the high road of educating, I have very successfully created a rapport with the agency to be educated on my faith and its practices so as to prevent such incidents in the future.

My methods may not be agreeable to many but this is the method I choose to adopt and I see more benefit in it than destroying someone's life and livelihood.

I am glad this matter has been handled amicably and appropriately and I urge everyone to always do their part in vocalizing discrimination and in their personal capacities, bring about change.

I am grateful to all the outpouring of support I have received.

Thank you.

Pavitar Singh :'Cloth Thingy on Your head': Sikh Man's Discriminatory Experience Applying For Job Goes Viral

      Today (July 21) Marks Racial Harmony Day
Pavitar Singh,who lives in Singapore applied to a certain organization for business needs which entails a certain level of face to face interaction. He shared a recent experience while applying for a job in “a certain organisation for business needs

Received a phone call this morning to be told that I fit the bill but was explicitly told this;

"Sorry ah sir, I see your name ends with Singh. So you have the cloth thingy on your head ah? Is it removable or do you always wear it?"

I replied: Yes, I am a Singh. It is called a turban and no it is not removable. Is there an issue?

Lady on the phone: The thing is I'm not sure if the organisers will be comfortable with it.

Me: You do know that the constitution allows me to work and live as a Singaporean whilst having my turban on right? Mind you, I was in the Airforce. A place not many can be in due to clearance issues.

Lady: Oh! You were in the Airforce?! A bit surprising!

Me: Thank you for your time. I will lodge an official report for the authorities to look into this matter.

Lady starts apologizing profusley and I simply cut the call.
                                      Pavitar Singh

Not the first time this has happened and it is a bit apalling that as a citizen of this country I am being told I can't conduct myself with my turban on.
Will definitely be viewing my options and will escalate this matter to ensure no other individual becomes a victim of such discrimination.

BJP CM Biplab Deb Calls Jats, Sardars 'Low Minded', Clarifies Later; Congress Demands Apology



Tripura CM Biplab Deb has once again triggered a controversy withhis remarks on Haryana's Jat community and Punjab's Sardars (Sikhs) that theyare "low minded" compared to the Bengalis. A video of the TripuraCM's speech at an Agartala Press Club event has gone viral on social media with the Opposition party demanding action against him for "insulting Sikhs andJats".
"If we talk about the people of Punjab, we say, he's a Punjabi, a Sardar. The Sardar isn't afraid ofanyone. They are very strong but have less brains. One can't win them over with strength but with love and affection. Let me tell you about the Jats of Haryana. So how do people talk about Jats they say Jats are less intelligent
but are very physically healthy. If you challenge a Jat, he will bring his gun out of his house," said Biplab Deb.
"For Bengal or Bengalis, it is said that one shouldn't challenge them with regards to intelligence. Bengalis are known as very intelligent and it is their identity in India every community is known with a
certain type and character," he said further.
Congress Spokesperson Randeep Singh Surjewala, who himself hails from Haryana, took offense and termed Deb's remarks "a BJP mindset". He asked Prime Minister Narendra Modi,Haryana CM Manoharlal Khattar and BJP President JP Nadda to break their silence and apologise for their leader's remark.

The Tripura CM later clarified his remarks and said that he had mentioned the views of some people about Punjabis and Jats.
"In an event organized at Agartala Press Club, I had mentioned the views of some people about my Punjabi and Jat brothers. My impression was not to hurt any society. I am proud of both Punjabi and Jat communities. I myself have lived among them for a long time," he said.
