S. Balbir Singh Nanra, president of Canadian
Ramgarhia Society was upset, when he shifted
to Canada from UK and lay off from the job
due to closer of the company. He was
depressed because he had never faced such
problem in UK. He made a quick decision to
return back to UK. But God has assigned his
duty to work for Ramgarhia community in
Canada. So God created an environment to
allure him to Canada and mark his presence
in the heart of Canadian Ramgarhias with his
good activities and dedicated services for
communities. " |
