Amritsar, Sept. 10 -- Akal Takht acting jathedar Giani Kuldeep Singh Gargaj has called a special meeting of Sikh organisations and NGOs serving flood victims with relief tasks at the Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) head office on September 13. In a statement, the jathedar said that Punjab is passing through a grave flood situation. "In this difficult time, Sikh organisations, institutions, groups, personalities, Punjabi actors, and artistes have played an admirable role in providing immediate relief to the people of the state. This service is commendable, and it has sent a positive message of Punjab's spirit of "Chardi Kala" (ever-rising spirit), nurtured under the name of the Sikh Gurus, across the country and the world," he said. He said though Punjabis and well-wishers have rendered massive service during the ongoing relief operations, there is now a pressing need for all organisations engaged in relief to work in an organised and effective manner. "Relief material must be distributed in a planned way, and long-term service must continue so that the donations and contributions of supporters are not wasted or misused," he said.HTC...
