Yes Jios, This Young Man is Tejinder Pal Singh and hails form a rural village in Gurdaspur Dist - a border dist with Pakistan and very lacking in minimum of amenities.
The very fact that this young man has come this far (most Sikh rural studnets drop out at std eight or earlier and only a tiny 1.5% ever reach college/university.)
TIGER JATHA UK and KHALSA AID UK and soem others are in the forefront of helping such bright students.
Its a TRAGEDY that we SIKHS are too HAPPY to donate HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of our hard earnings to vehlarr saadhs with big bellies to build their DERAS and amass PERSONAL PROPERTIES...flashy cars and all that....while our BRIGHTEST of BRIGHT SIKH CHILDREN languish in rural schools with no teachers, no equipment, no books, no libraries no drinking water and NO proper sewerage even...and then when of age they drop out as SEMI EDUCATED youth who remain unemployed and unemployable and become FODDER for even more SAADH DERAS....a VICIOUS CYCLE that only proper and QUALITYAFFORDABLE EDUCATION can END.
MY appeal..IF you have a comfotable income in your country..PLEASE ADOPT your VILLAGE SCHOOL and help the kids achieve a good education...Bhai Gurdass Ji declares in his Vaars..The WORTH of giving someone worthy an "EDUCATION" (Shabad sikhayeka ) is equivalent of Donating FIVE GOLDEN MANDIRS !! Now not many of us cna afford to donate even ONE Golden mandir (let alone FIVE )..but MOST of us can HELP at least ONE such bright child back in PUNJAB. EDUCATION in PUNJAB is relatively CHEAP (in Foreign DOLLARS and POUNDS).....even vis a vis Malaysian Ringgit as I have found out each year I can easily help Five Bright Sikh Rural students. with books, fees, uniforms computers etc etc.
I will try and get more info on this young boy and post it here.animatedkhanda1animatedkhanda1animatedkhanda1animatedkhanda1animatedkhanda1
