WSN Network

FREMONT: On 6the June, the sangat of Gurudwara Fremont held a special Dewan in the memory of the martyrs of June 1984 attack on Darbar Sahib. After the Bhog of Akhand Path in the morning, there was a kirtan darbar in the evening which witnessed the participation of Raagi Jathas including Bhai Bhupinder Singh Anand Delhi Wale, Bhai Sohan Singh Gurdaspur Wale, Bhai Manjit Singh, Former Head Granthi of Gurudwara Fremont Bhai Paramjit Singh, Bhai Dilbag Singh of Damdami Taksal and Sikh intellectual Bhai Sahib Bhai Sahib Singh narrated details of martyrdom and paid homage to the martyrs.  

To enable the completion of the incomplete projects of Gurudwara Fremont, on 6th June a fund raising programme was held and Daswandh of the sangat was sought. This programme was broadcast live over popular radio station, Radio Geet sangeet. During this programme members of the governing Council appealed to the sangat to participate in the blood donation drive on 8th June. The Sangat whole heartedly participated in the drive. The function ended with kirtan and dhaadi waars using the Rabab and string instruments. The stage was managed by Satnam Singh Khalsa who urged the sangat to continue the struggle for the freedom of the Sikhs. He also appealed to the sangat to contribute handsomely towards Gurudwara funds.
