The Farm Bills 2020 is a combination of three agricultural bills passed by Indian Parliament in September 2020. The bills are Farmers' Produce Trade and Commerce (Promotion and Facilitation) Bill, 2020, Farmers (Empowerment and Protection) Agreement on Price Assurance and Farm Services Bill, 2020 and Essential Commodities (Amendment) Bill 2020. These present the people of Punjab with a fundamental problem with some describing it as a “death warrant” that will open the flood gates to exploit farmers, severely hurting their earnings. 

Most of Punjab relies heavily on farming for their livelihood. Over 75% of Punjab’s 30 million-strong population is involved in agriculture. The three new laws fail to protect farmers from exploitation and to ensure fair prices for their produce. These laws could lead to large private corporate entities taking advantage of farmers, triggering widespread farmers’ protests across the country despite the coronavirus.

More than 1,280 farmers and agricultural labourers have committed suicide during the past two years in Punjab. However, it is estimated that thousands more go unreported every year. With your help, we have been assisting the widows of farmers who commit suicide. Their stories are heartbreaking, if the voices of farmers are not heard and an agreement is not made, the suicide rate will dramatically increase. Farmers will give up hope and end their lives leaving more women widowed and children without a father. We therefore need to unite and stand by farmers. 

The funds you donate will be used towards giving protesting farmers the assistance they need to sustain their fight:

-Providing ambulances and arranging for doctors to go along the farmers to Delhi
-Portable toilets that will be towed behind vehicles for use by families
-Financial assistance for diesel for farmers' tractors
-Rent for buses and trucks (some of the farmers do not have their own vehicles) 
-Mattresses and bedding for overnight use

Thank you for your support!

Your Support = Empowered Youth in Panjab

The youth of Panjab stand at a crucial crossroads. The challenges they face are complex, reaching into their identity, aspirations, and well-being. Yet, we see immense potential in each young person—a potential that, with the right support, can flourish into something transformative, a change that uplifts lives across the entire community.

This year, UNITED SIKHS has taken several initiatives to support and empower Panjab’s youth. From education and career guidance to cultural connection and substance abuse prevention, we’re committed to creating opportunities that allow our youth to thrive and stay anchored in their roots.

Here’s how your support has helped us make a difference and how we can continue to uplift and empower our youth together:

Project Galwakdi Gurbani Kirtan: The next generation can only preserve the essence of Sikhi by staying connected with Gurbani, Kirtan, and embracing Sikh teachings in daily life. Through Project Galwakkdi, we hosted initiatives like Anhad Jhunkar, where over 300 children performed Kirtan together after months of Gurbani Kirtan training. With your support, we aim to elevate this learning experience by offering raag-based Kirtan programs for youth, ensuring a deeper, lifelong connection to Sikhi.


Project Kirti Self-Employment Program: We assist young individuals with financial support and required skills to become self-employed or begin the entrepreneurship journey directly.


Civil Services Preparation: With the number of Sikh IAS and IPS officers in Panjab declining due to fewer candidates taking these exams, we’re working to motivate youth to pursue civil service careers. To support this goal, we provide top-tier coaching facilities for selected meritorious yet financially disadvantaged students.


Education Support: With your support, we’re able to continue covering school and college fees for students facing financial barriers.

Career Counseling: Career counseling sessions have been vital for guiding youth on available career paths and helping them make informed choices. These sessions also provide parents with insights on how to support their children in reaching their full potential.

Sports Development: We proudly support youth icon Amritbir Singh in launching sports and fitness centers across villages in Gurdaspur. With your help, we can expand this initiative throughout Panjab, providing positive outlets for youth and steering them away from harmful distractions like substance abuse.

Sikhs for Business: The innovative business networking platform 'Sikhs for Business' is quickly becoming a springboard for youth, offering a supportive network, mentorship, and training to start and grow their businesses. As it evolves into a global network, it’s providing valuable opportunities for young entrepreneurs to thrive.


Rescue and Rehabilitation: Beyond spreading awareness and motivating youth to stay drug-free, our teams actively support individuals battling addiction. With your support, we aim to establish rehabilitation centers modeled after our successful program in Canada, bringing comprehensive recovery resources to those in need.


Financial Support: Athletes like Harpreet Singh, who required airfare from Panjab to Germany to compete in the World Weightlifting Championships, turn to us for support. Thanks to your ongoing generosity, we can help talented young people pursue their dreams and achieve excellence.

Your Support Matters

We invite you to be part of this journey of hope and transformation. Help create a better, brighter future for the youth of Panjab. Every contribution, no matter the size, matters.

Help a Pakistani Sikh Family

Based primarily in and around Peshawar, Pakistan’s tiny ethnic Pashtun Sikh community has been frequently and alarmingly targeted by gunmen multiple times in the recent past. On June 24th, Manmohan Singh, who owned a shop in Peshawar, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, was returning home in an auto-rickshaw when two motorbike-borne assailants followed him and opened fire, killing him on the spot. The 32-year-old was the sole breadwinner in his family and is survived by his parents, wife, son and a disabled younger brother. Please hit the donate button to support this family!
