This Gurudwara Will Also Build Medical Colleges
He also revealed that the organisation which earlier put a lot of gold in buildings and gurudwaras, will not construct Gursikhs. These school shall provide good education enabling Gursikhs to hold high positions. Medical colleges and hospitals will be built using the gold collected by the gurudwara over the past 50 years. This gurdwara in Maharashtra is indeed setting a fantastic example of selfless service for other religious organisations and places of worship to follow.
