Health is Wealth at GHPS Hargobind enclave

A healthy child will achieve more in life. The school, run under the aegis of the Delhi Sikh Gurudwara Management Committee and steered under the Chairmanship of S. Balbir Singh Ji Vivek Vihar has drawn out a detailed programme wherein the child and all those connected with him/her are drawn into the network to provide the best of healthcare. Regular Health Check-ups are conducted on an ongoing basis by a panel of eminent doctors. The school aims at ensuring that in case of need, attention of the parents can be drawn to ailments which, if neglected, can cause major setbacks later in life.

With regards,

Mrs. Jasmeet Kaur

GHPS, Hargobind enclave on a mission to study Environment

"Our fast paced life styles and match box houses are distancing the children from the beauties of nature – both flora and fauna. Moreover, if our children donot realize the reason for and requirement of preserving the eco system nothing planned at higher levels will ever be effective. With a view to bridge this gap, a visit to the Asola Wildlife Sanctuary was organized for the students", said School Principal Mrs. Jasmeet Kaur 

"We at Guru Harkrishan Public School, Hargobind Enclave believe that education should not be restricted to the covers of a book or confined to the four walls of a class room. A child learns more through first hand information", said Sd Balbir Singh School Chairman. 

Guides and Teachers gave the children first hand exposure to the whys and wherefores of the need to preserve the eco – system. The photographs in themselves speak volumes and nothing more needs to be said...  In keeping with this concept, the school organized a ‘Study of Historical Monuments Tour’ for the students. A visit to Lodhi Garden was a part of this exercise. "The response of the children during and after the exercise was an eye opener for the teachers," Said Ms Parminder Kaur.

Suspicious man seen at Sikh temple at OAK CREEK

OAK CREEK, Wis. (AP) — A police report says Oak Creek officers detained a man at the Sikh temple where six people were killed in August and found he had ammunition and notebook references to a mass shooting. 

Sikh members summoned police last Sunday when the man visited the temple with a backpack. The man told officers he wanted to pray with the Sikhs and was writing a book. 

Officers searched the man’s backpack and found duct tape, zip ties, crime scene tape and a notebook with references to the mass shooting in Aurora, Colo. The police report says several boxes of ammunition and an empty gun case were found in his car. 

Temple spokesman Kulwant Singh Dhaliwal told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel (http://tinyurl.com/b3jhpdl ) police said the man also had $4,000 in cash from the sale of two guns. The man was questioned but not arrested.

Go Green Campaign by GHPS, Hargobind enclave

Guru Harkrishan Public School, Hargobind Enclave, New Delhi, launched the Go Green Campaign in the school. The campaign was given a kick start not with the traditional tree plantation drive but a Nature study exercise, wherein, the students were told about various plants. The aim was to make the students aware of what can be planted, where and how.

The next step was to tell them how to create greenery with plants. A begining was made with a hope that they will carry the message home & in their respective localities. School Principal Mrs. Jasmeet kaur informed that this will be a regular feature in the school so that students could learn about the social responsibilities also.

 

A travelling tale of 1984 Anti Sikh Riots in Delhi

 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hT_kHydjfpg

The original sin of November 1984

Twenty-eight years ago in New Delhi, Kanpur and Bokaro, a murderous attack was launched against Indians of the Sikh faith by mobs organised and instigated by Congress politicians bent upon using the tragic assassination of Indira Gandhi as an occasion for political manipulation and gain.

Twenty-eight years ago in New Delhi, Kanpur and Bokaro, a murderous attack was launched against Indians of the Sikh faith by mobs organised and instigated by Congress politicians bent upon using the tragic assassination of Indira Gandhi as an occasion for political manipulation and gain. In the capital, the police stood mute witness to the killing of 2,733 Sikhs. That inaction and the failure to register cases or properly investigate those that were eventually filed are testimony to the official patronage the killings enjoyed. Rajiv Gandhi, who was Prime Minister at the time, made light of the pogrom, describing them as a reaction — “the earth always trembles when a big tree falls” — to the killing of his mother. Senior Congress leaders like H.K.L. Bhagat who were identified by survivors and eyewitnesses as instigators of the violence were rewarded with ministerial berths. A Commission of Inquiry headed by Justice Ranganath Mishra concluded, astonishingly, that the organised massacre was a spontaneous and “involuntary reaction” by ordinary citizens stricken by grief at Mrs Gandhi’s assassination. Subsequent commissions indicted the police for acts of commission and omission but the bitter reality is that the victims of the massacre are no closer to justice today than they were in 1984. 

The issue at stake is not simply a moral one. The fact that the politicians and police officers responsible for 1984 not only escaped indictment but actually prospered had grave implications for minorities elsewhere in India. The riot system perfected by the Congress on the streets of Delhi was unveiled again in Bombay in 1993 and, finally, by the Bharatiya Janata Party government of Gujarat in 2002. The parallels between 1984 and 2002 are striking. Like Rajiv Gandhi’s ‘Newtonian’ logic, Chief Minister Narendra Modi described the killing of innocent Muslims in his State as a spontaneous reaction to the burning of Hindu train passengers at Godhra. BJP and sangh parivar activists led the mobs in various places and were rewarded, like Maya Kodnani, with plum jobs. The Gujarat police used the same tactics as their Delhi counterparts to ensure the criminal investigation of major riot cases went nowhere. The big difference between now and then, of course, is the vigilance of the Supreme Court, which intervened when it became apparent that Mr. Modi’s government was not going to provide justice. Difficult though it seems, therefore, judicial intervention is needed even at this late stage to punish the guilty. In the absence of justice, the least the country can do is build a fitting monument in Delhi to honour the memory of the victims. The government may frown on such an act of remembrance but future generations of Indians must never forget there was a time the state looked away while innocent citizens were killed in the very Capital of the Republic simply because of their religion.

A travelling tale of anti-Sikh riots

A campaign to remind the government of its failure to punish the guilty

A travelling photo exhibition documenting the horrors of the 1984 anti-Sikh violence that erupted after the assassination of former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi was on display at the Arts Faculty at Delhi University’s North Campus on Monday.

The exhibition comprising 80 photographs will, in the coming days, also be displayed at Jail Road, Patel Nagar, Kalkaji, Bangla Sahib Gurdwara and finally culminate at Jantar Mantar on November 3. It is part of a campaign to remind the Indian Government of its failure to punish the guilty and provide justice to the victims and survivors of the violence.

Some of the photographs show buildings set on fire at Connaught Place, Chandni Chowk and Trilokpuri. One photograph shows dogs feeding on a burnt human body. In another, the windows of former President Giani Zail Singh’s car are shattered.

In a photograph shot at INA Market, a mob is holding a Sikh man by his hair while some men are hurling stones at him. One photograph shows a mob at AIIMS crossing. Another one shot at the New Delhi Railway Station shows two bodies of Sikh men lying on a trolley-cart while people walk by staring at the corpses.

A number of affidavits submitted by widows of men murdered during the violence are also on display. Most of the photographs on display at the exhibition were shot by Ashok Vahie and Ram Rahman.

On Tuesday, the exhibition will travel to Jail Road and on Wednesday it will be on display at Patel Nagar near Satyam Cinemas and in the evening at Kalkaji B-Block. On November 1 and 2, the exhibition can be seen at Bangla Sahib Gurdwara. On November 3, a public demonstration and a candlelight vigil will be held at Jantar Mantar.
