Hi, I’m Sukhraj Singh from Sikh Archive and welcome to the fifteenth episode of our Podcast series of conversations with historians, authors, academics, journalists and activists on topics related to their areas of expertise on Sikh or Panjabi history.
In this episode we are joined by Dr Dalvir Singh Pannu, who is a dentist by profession but also a scholar of Sikh heritage in Pakistan. He has led a life long self-funded campaign driven by his passion to document and illustrate the Sikh heritage sites in Pakistan through the lens of architecture and sikh history.
I discovered his latest book, titled The Sikh Heritage: Beyond Borders, and was immediately fascinated by the tremendous amount work he had done and invited him on the series to discuss how he was able to conduct his research and what drove him to success in his endeavour and more generally to understand his life passion and philosophy in educating others on Sikh history and heritage, which I think is really forward thinking.
