Several People Belonging To The Sikh Community Join BJP In Delhi

BY A STAFF REPORTER: Amid the Lok Sabha elections, several people from the Sikh Community joined the BJP in New Delhi on April 27, Saturday.

The joiners were welcomed in the presence of BJP National President JP Nadda, party National General Secretary Tarun Chugh, party leader Manjinder Singh Sirsa, and BJP President Virendraa Sachdeva.

JP Nadda addressed the gathering and stated "Many people don't know this, but he (PM Narendra Modi) was the Punjab in-charge for a long time. He has been to every city and every district of the state. We have said for a long time that FCRA registration for the Harmandir Sahib should be done because many people across the world want to donate money. But it was never done and people could not contribute to it in ways they wanted to. The previous Prime Ministers could not do this for the Sikh community what PM Narendra Modi has done, and now people across the world can donate to the Harmandir Sahib. When it came to imposing GST on langar served in the gurdwara, our government decided it would pay the GST but the langar will be tax-free."
