EDITORIAL
On September 30
th
2009, I, along with a few others inthe Diaspora, received an urgent e-mail from Prof.Gurtej Singh about Prof. Harinder Singh Mehboobbeing critically ill. This news was accompanied by anurgent and heart felt appeal to the members of theKhalsa Panth to, in the short term, come to the aid of this Giant of Panjabi literature and poetic interpreter of Guru Period of Sikh history and long term plan for a“Daswandh Tribute to the Distinguished Fund”.As I write this I have received the following e-mailfrom Prof. Gurtej Singh:
“Our friend Mehboob is no more. That is a great loss to letters and to Sikh religious studies. The intended treatment could not be started as he had already become very week and never could recover so as to be able to tolerate the effect of intended treatment (chemotherapy). I had requested for financial help for him expecting him to become able to undergo the treatment. S. Hardev SinghCalifornia, Sardar Jaswant Singh Australia and S. Avtar Singh in England had collected certain amountsin response to my request. Sadly the occasion to use the collected amounts never arose. I request you now to either return the collected amount or to use them on the instructions of donors. Small amounts that we could muster during his life time were well used and provided on assurance that he would not suffer forlack of funds.” Feb.26/2010
.
We, at The Sikh Bulletin, have decided to pass thefunds that we collected, $2,691.00, along to SinghSabha International, Canada as a small contribution totheir effort in providing trained Missionaries to thevillages in Panjab. They are now expanding theiractivity in providing vans for travelling Kiratani Jathas.We thought a van carrying the inscription
“Prof.Harinder Singh Mehboob Memorial Van”
would bean appropriate gesture in his memory.Work being done by Singh Sabha International wasdetailed in the November-December 2009 issue of TheSikh Bulletin. We invite our readers to contribute to thework of SSI, Canada; mark your donation “Prof.Harinder Singh Mehboob Memorial Fund.” Everypenny will go to the SSI, Canada’s Missionary Projectin his memory.
