Amritsar, March 30, 2022 (Yes Punjab News)
Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) President Advocate Harjinder Singh Dhami has welcomed the resolution passed by the United States (US) House of Representatives, supporting the designation of Vaisakhi, April 14 of each year, as ‘National Sikh Day’. This resolution of dedicating April 14 of each year to Sikhs has been passed by 117th Congress of US House of Representatives.
The resolution reads that Sikhs began immigrating into the US over 100 years ago, and have played an important role in developing the US.
SGPC President Advocate Dhami has termed this resolution of the US Congress as a matter of pride for the Sikh Quam (community). He said that the Sikhs all over the world have shown their significant existence with their rich culture and hard work.
“If today the US Congress is recognising the Vaisakhi as ‘National Sikh Day’, then it is a tribute to the ideology of the Gurus (Sikh masters) and the establishment of Khalsa Panth”, said Advocate Dhami.
This decision is welcomed by the Sikh body, SGPC and we thank all those who worked hard for it as well as the sponsoring representatives who affixed the seal of approval on this resolution.
