Meghalaya Supports Shillong Sikhs' Rights

Meghalaya Supports Shillong Sikhs' Rights

The government of Meghalaya has promised to support the Sikh community living in Punjabi Lane, Shillong.

This promise came during a meeting with a religious leader, Giani Kuldip Singh Gargajj, who was visiting to celebrate an important Sikh event.

The Sikhs have been living in Shillong for almost 200 years, and the government wants to make sure they are not forced to leave.

The leader also talked about the importance of teaching children Punjabi and Gurmukhi so they can stay connected to their religious teachings.

Many people from different places came to the religious programs, and the leader honored some Sikh community members for their service.
