SGPC to open hospital in Jalandhar

Amritsar, October 12

The Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) will open a super-specialty hospital in Jalandhar.

SGPC chief Bibi Jagir Kaur said a Sikh devotee, Joginder Singh, has donated 26 kanals for developing the hospital. “This hospital will be dedicated to Guru Ramdas and the construction will begin soon,” she said.

Regarding the events related to Parkash Purb of Guru Ramdas on October 22, she said nagar kirtan would start from Akal Takht and pass through the old city and culminate at the Golden Temple. Like every year, ‘raag darbar’ and ‘kirtan samagam’ would be organised on the night of October 21. On October 22, jalau (grandeur) would be decorated at the Golden Temple, Akal Takht and gurdwara Baba Atal Rai Sahib. — TNS
