Baba Pritam Singh breathes his last
His body was brought from a hospital in Ludhiana to
Sirsa today at noon. As the NEWS spread thousands of his associates and fans thronged
at Gurdwara Chilla Sahib to pay obeisance to him. His funeral shall be held on morning
of 3rd January. There was great rush at Gurdwara entry. Although
volunteers from Gurdwara were assisting and guiding people but still all the
roads leading to Gurdwara and nearby areas were all filled up with Vehicles of
all sorts parked here and there. At one time there was such a Jam at the Langar side entry to the Gurdwara that it became impossible
to get in or come out. SP Sirsa himself came with the POLICE force to take
stock of the situation. Bare Footed SP Sh. Davinder Yadav in a humble way requested
the Sangat to maintain discipline and
stand in Q. SHO Sh. Suresh Pal and Traffic SHO Daljit Arya were also with the SP.
The body of Baba Pritam Singh was placed in Glass Box with a small AC to help
keep the temperature of the body low. People kept pouring into the Gurdwara complex
till well past mid night of the night between 2nd and 3rd January.

Baba Pritam Singh ji popularly known as Kar Sewa
Walay Baba ji, breathed his last after prolonged illness in the wee hours of
today (2nd January).
Baba Pritam Singh - who all his life remained a devout SIKH, was loved by people as he had been
involved in Kar Sewa of several Gurdwaras. Apart from Gurdwara Chilla Sahib he took charge of Kar Sewa at Gurdwara Madho Singhana, Gurdwara Sahib at Saha (Sohava Sahib) near Nohar Rajasthan,
Gurdwara in Sector 20 HUDA, Gurdwara at Sahuwala 1st etc. Although Baba Pritam Singh was born at Village
Dosanjh near Phagwara, but he put-up at Sirsa since 1958 when he got in touch with
Baba Baghel Singh of Sirsa. Apart from Gurdwaras Baba Pritam had also helped in
setting up of Schools and Dispensaries in this area. In his early life before partition of India and Pakistan (Undivided India) he used to go for Kar Sewa at Gurdwara Nankana Sahib (Now in Pakistan). He was reportedly about 93 years old.
