[QUOTE="spnadmin, post: 130721, member: 35"] This may be the companion article to the story posted by Soul_jyot ji [B]The Tribune – NRI Sikh offers prime land in US to SGPC[/B] K S Chawla Ludhiana, July 28. An NRI Sikh settled in the USA has offered a prime piece of land in Washington DC to the SGPC for the establishment of a Sikh cultural embassy. The piece of land has close proximity to the White House and is worth hundred crores. A gurdwara is already existing on this piece of land. Avtar Singh Makkar, president, SGPC, who visited the US, told The Tribune on his return that NRI Shamsher Singh was settled in the US some 50 years ago and had worked with World Bank. Shamsher had visited Punjab some time ago and met Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal and the Finance Minister and offered them the piece of land with him in Washington. It was the Chief Minister who asked Makkar to discuss the matter with Shamsher and take necessary steps. Makkar had gone to the US, along with some officials of the SGPC, and discussed the issue with Shamsher. Shamsher was keen that the SGPC should set up a Sikh cultural centre where the wards of Sikhs living in the US and other countries should have links with their cultural heritage. Makkar said they would set up a Sikh mission of the SGPC in Washington at the land offered by Shamsher. This would be for the first time that the SGPC would be having a mission out of the country. He claimed that many Sikhs settled in the US and other countries had offered to provide land to the SGPC for the establishment of Sikh missions. Makkar said they were completing the legalities for taking possession of the land and only after that they would initiate further steps. The SGPC chief said a committee of Sikh intellectuals would be set up to start work on the mission. Makkar said during his stay in the US he had discussed with Sikhs the fact that the SGPC was finding it difficult to send Guru Granth Sahib in a respectful manner to foreign countries. He said if they offer land for a printing press then the SGPC could print Guru Granth Sahib in the US. He added that many Sikhs offered to help him in the venture.
