Chief Khalsa Diwan (CKD) is all set to expand its chain of 48 educational institutions by establishing a state-of-the-art new school in Balachaur on five acres of land generously donated by Sant Baba Daljit Singh Chicago Wale. The foundation stone of this upcoming institution was laid recently by Giani Raghbir Singh, Head Granthi, Sri Darbar Sahib, in the presence of prominent religious, social and political dignitaries.
During a meeting held today at the Chief Khalsa Diwan head office, CKD president Dr Inderbir Singh Nijjar shared that the Diwan’s remarkable contribution to education and moral upliftment has earned global recognition. “Inspired by this, philanthropists like Sant Baba Daljit Singh are placing immense trust in CKD by donating land to spread the light of knowledge that harmonizes modern education with spiritual values,” he said.
Dr Nijjar further informed that similar land donations have been offered to CKD in Jalandhar and Jammu and Kashmir, reflecting the growing faith and confidence of the people in the institution’s integrity and service. “The amalgamation of religion and science,” he emphasised, “is the foremost need of the modern era, and this school will mark a significant step in that direction.”
Appreciating the selfless contributions of Sant Baba Daljit Singh toward Panthic service and public welfare, Dr Nijjar announced that the new school would be developed as a model of world-class education, featuring modern science laboratories, digital classrooms, modern facilities, and sports infrastructure. Alongside advanced academics, students will also be nurtured with ethical values and Sikh principles, ensuring a holistic educational experience.
He expressed hope that this new CKD institution would become a centre of knowledge, ideals and spirituality, playing a vital role in ushering in a new era of value-based education for future generations.
