At the end of the visit, Amrit Sanchar Samagam was held at the main centre in which 304 Sikh devotees was awarded with Amrit”, he added.
Regarding survey conducted on life of local Sikhs, he told, “While collecting the data regarding life of Sikhs residing there, we tried to get the answers of these questions- when did Sikhs go to the state from Punjab? What were their circumstances at that time? What is their present situation? What is their future? How much are they attached with their religion, culture, language etc.? What are the problems they face? What is their economic condition?-report of which will be released later.
He also told that there are some areas like Shiv Puri, Ashok Nagar and Sho Pur, that look like Punjab because Sikhs are residing their in large number.
