The Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) has donated a sum of Rs 10 lakh to the Punjab Agricultural University (PAU) Endowment Fund. S. Banta Singh, a representative of SGPC, presented the cheque of Rs 10 lakh to Dr Baldev Singh Dhillon, Vice-Chancellor, PAU. The Registrar of the University, Dr P.K. Khanna was also present on this occasion.



Dr Dhillon expressed his profound gratitude to the SGPC and said that this gesture will be beneficial for strengthening the farm research and transfer of technology programmes. He stated that the SGPC is a historic organization which has taught the people to work hard and serve the society with devotion and dedication. "As the rural populace is intensely associated with the farming, there is a need to encourage the youth to embrace agriculture as a profession and make vital contribution to the nation's food grain bowl," emphasised Dr Dhillon. The contemporary agriculture, in the Punjab state, is confronting many challenges, he observed, saying that this gesture of SGPC will go a long way in addressing the farm issues through intensive research.
