Commemoration at Fremont: Be Guruwallahs, follow the Bani
Satnam Singh Khalsa 

FREMONT: To commemorate the 25th anniversary of the Operation Blue Star, 25 Akhand Path Sahibs were organised at Gurdwara Sahib, Fremont and the sangat connected with the word of the Guru for three consecutive days that ended with the bhog of the Paths and Kirtan diwans. 

A number of panthic scholars later addressed the sangat, recalling the dastardly attack on the centre of Sikhism at Amritsar that proved to be a trigger for coming into existence of the Sikh Youth of America organisation. 

Bibi Gurbakhsh Kaur Kahlon, the Supreme Council member of Gurdwara Fremont, said the Sikhs battled the Indian Army then and have been battling the Indian government's machinations ever since. Former secretary of Gurdwara Fremont, Balbir Singh Sakhal said reciting and understanding the bani of the Gurus was the real sewa of the Guru and the panth. He said there was an urgent need for unity in the panth. 

Bhai Jaswant Singh Khosa, who recently presented a hand-written bir of Sri Guru Granth Sahib, his labour of love, to Gurdwara Fremont, said the Army action saw destruction of many hand written birs and this was the reason he undertook the effort. He said so far he has created four hand written birs.  

Satnam Singh Khalsa said the battle of Amritsar shall not be over till the dream of the martyrs was fulfilled. Fremont Gurdwara's Chief Sewadar Bhai Harjot Singh Khalsa said when the Sikhs will start following the teachings of Sri Guru Granth Sahib in their real intent,  and the Quom qill all become Guruwalas, that will be the say when the enemy will stop looking at us with any bad intention. 

He also announced that to mark the martyrdom day of Sri Guru Arjan Dev Ji and the Ghallughara, 101 Sukhmani Sahib paths and Sri Akhand Path Sahib will be organised on June 19, and asked the sangat to participate with enthusiasm.
