DSGMC President Hands Over 47 Kilogram Gold, silver For Development works in Gurdwara Bangla Sahib & Construction of Bala Sahib Hospital



The President of Delhi Sikh Gurdwara Management Committee (DSGMC) handed over 16 kilograms of gold, 31 kilograms of silver and a diamond to Baba Bachan Singh Ji for completion of development works in Gurdwara Shri Bangla Sahib and Bala Sahib Hospital. Baba Ji is carrying out Kar Sewa at both the places.
Speaking on the occasion  ( 26th September 2016 ) Manjit Singh G.K. said that one wing of the hospital would be operational very soon.



G.K. said that he had handed over gold and silver to Baba Ji for the second time during his tenure as President of DSGMC and announced that Baba Ji would use the precious metal as per the requirement, needs and convenience of Sikh Sangat. DSGMC President also announced that he was committed to fulfill dreams of Panth Rattan Baba Harbans Singh who have once thought of starting the construction of the hospital recently construction of hospital was given to Baba Ji after getting clearance from the executive committee of the DSGMC and construction of first phase would be competed very soon. 


Recalling that in 1980s Baba Harbans Singh used to tell his father Jathedar Santokh Singh to acquire lands for Gurdhams and the social cause and he would construct the buildings, G.K. said that he never understood the meaning of this at that time and he now understand when the prices of lands in Delhi have skyrocketed. “Baba Ji at that time used call lands as gold and Hospitals, schools and Gurdwaras as ornaments”, added G.K.  

 G.K. clarified that instead of fixing gold on Gurdwars the present committee under him have focussed more on education, dharma parchar, conservation of history and social welfare. “But at some places keeping in view the shardha of the Sangat gold has been fixed at Gurdwaras,” he said referring to gold donated by a Guru-Premi for main door of Gurdwara Bangla Sahib. Also, ten kilogram silver given by Raja Baldeep Singh was also handed over to Baba Bachan Singh Ji.
