GURNAM SINGH MUKATSAR PAYS TRIBUTES TO SAHEB KANSHI RAM
Jai BirdiOn Saturday, October 27, a visiting scholar from India Prof. Gurnam Singh Mukatsar will pay tributes to Saheb Kanshi Ram who died on October 9 last year. The event is organized to pay tributes to one of the foremost leaders after Dr. Ambedkar who mobilized Dalits, minorities, and other oppressed groups to organize politically and make effective differences in their lives. Mukatsar had known and worked diligently under Kanshi Ram and has now written several books highlighting Dalit assertion in India. In his book, “JOOTH NA BHOL PANDE”, Mukatsar “emerges as the sole spokesman of Dalit Sikhs and point blank tells the upper caste Sikhs not to speak falsehood but acknowledge what is said in the Guru Granth itself that the founders of Sikh religion are the Dalit saints. Guru Nanak’s admission that Guru Ravidas is his guru is mentioned in the Guru Granth”, says VT Rajshekhar of Dalit Voice. The tribute was organized at the Dr. Ambedkar Library, Shri Guru Ravidass Community Centre at 7271 Gilley Avenue in Burnaby
