"Their contributions have not only shaped the cultural landscape of the region, but have also served as a beacon of hope and unity in the face of adversity. The Sikhs stand as a shining example of resilience and strength, their presence a reminder of the power of unity in the face of adversity," he said.

Dr. Farooq said that NC remains committed to provide identical opportunities for educated Sikh youth. "The need of the hour calls for recognising and addressing the unique challenges and barriers faced by the Sikh community which remain unattended by the successive non NC governments since 2015.
