Amritsar, March 22
With the assistance of US-based Sikhs, the SGPC will instal a solar power system in the Golden Temple complex.
SGPC president Bibi Jagir Kaur today held parleys with a delegation from California-United Sikh Mission led by Rashpal Singh Dhindsa, Sikh Lens Foundation president Vicky Singh and members of the coordination committee for installing the system.
Bibi Jagir Kaur said the SGPC executive had decided to put the power supply mechanism on the solar system mode and United Sikh Mission volunteered. “At present, the monthly power bill of the shrine comes around Rs 30-50 lakh. We required a system of generating at least 1-MW power. The California-based Sikhs offered to do the service,” she said. — TNS
