Jalandhar, Dec. 11 -- A 42-year-old Birmingham-based Sikh man has received the OBE award from Princess Anne, the Princess Royal, at St James's Palace, London, for services to the commemoration of Commonwealth soldiers who served GreatBritain. Captain Jagjeet(Jay) Singh Sohal, who was born in Birmingham, was awarded the Order of the British Empire (OBE), in recognition of founding the WW1 Sikh Memorial at the National Memorial Arboretum in Staffordshire in 2015. Sohal's grandparents hailed from Jalandhar's Sang Dhesian village in Phillaur sub-division before they permanently moved to the United Kingdom (UK) post World War II in 1945. "A magical day for a once-in-a-lifetime moment! Being recognised with an OBE for Services to Commonwealth Commemoration, an immense honour that I am proud to have shared with my family. My hope is it inspires more people from diverse socio-economic backgrounds like mine to serve our country," Sohal said in an Instagram post. The national memorial, which commemorates the 130,000 Sikh men who took part in the war, was established to inspire public service among wider communities, as Sikhs made up 20% of the British Indian Army, despite being just 1% of the Indian population at the time....
