MALACCA: They came from all corners of the country as well as from across the causeway and overseas to Malacca’s only Gurdawara Sahib Complex along the upper reaches of Jalan Temenggong to commemorate the 43rd Yaadgiri Semagam (death memorial prayers service) of the much revered His Holiness Sant Baba Sohan Singh Ji.
Born Bhai Udhai Singh in June 1902 in Chathwalla in Punjab, India, the would-be Sant (His Holiness) first came to Malaya in 1926 and was stationed at the Seremban Sikh Temple.
