SGPC

The Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) is a religious organization responsible for managing and overseeing the operation of gurdwaras (Sikh temples) primarily in Punjab, India, and surrounding regions. Established in 1920, it ensures the preservation of Sikh religious sites, maintains their facilities, organizes religious events, and fosters community welfare. The SGPC operates under the guidance of Sikh religious authorities and plays a key role in promoting Sikh traditions, education, and culture. It functions as a democratically elected body representing Sikh devotees, with the goal of safeguarding the spiritual and cultural heritage of the Sikh community.
