Gudrwaras Coalition to address Sikh issues
WSN Network 

Riverside, CA: Coalition of Gurdwaras of California and the watchdog agency 'Sikhs for Preservation of Sikhism and Sikh Heritage' held a meeting at Gurdwara Riverside to address issues and concerns of Sikh community.

Agenda included an update with regards to communication of Prof. Pashaura Singh; head Dr. Jasbir Singh Saini Chair of Punjabi and Sikh Studies at UCR and his desire to meet with the Coalition members. The members also expressed their aspiration to commemorate 25 years of attack on Golden Temple by Indian security forces.

It was resolved that Chancellor Timothy White, who had earlier declined to investigate charges of fabrication and falsification against Prof. Singh, should reconsider Sikh demand. If the demand is not met then a ‘Public Protest’ will be organized on the UCR campus.

A committee of representatives from Gurdwara Riverside, Walnut, Santa Ana, Palm Springs, Norco, Alhambra, Lankershim, Vermont, and Simi Valley has been formed to organize a collective program for marking the 25 years of attack on Sikh shrine.
