Sundar Singh from Brampton reached Chandigarh and met the journalists in Sector 28 and narrated the plight of the ‘daughters of Punjab’. She said that the ‘daughters of Punjab’ reach Canada but do not come with complete preparation and information and then don’t share their problems with anyone. That is why organizations like theirs have started an awareness campaign to save the daughters from being deported by providing them job opportunities, financial assistance and helping them by keeping them from going into criminal activities.
The daughters of Punjab should tell their plight to organizations like us, only then will it be solved, otherwise there will be no reduction in the number of daughters aged 17 to 20 years getting abortions done in the clinics of Canada.
Sundar Singh said that our NGO and some other institutions are also active in Canada but organizations like Akal Takht should come forward to help the daughters of India. Although the daughters of Punjab are very capable but without any help at a young age, they face difficulties in Canada. The mountain collapses, and the daughters, compulsorily or unknowingly, are getting trapped in the quagmire of crime and drugs.
Stealing cars by daughters and breaking into houses is a common thing in Canada. At this time, in the cold of minus 14, there are 20 thousand students in Brampton alone, who are also harassed by the landlords. Housing is the biggest challenge in Canada, 10-12 students are living in each basement making the overall situation worrisome.
Sundar Singh thanked Rajendra Taggad and Satnam Dao of Punjab Agenda Forum and Punjab Document Channel for extending a helping hand in Punjab by joining the awareness campaign.
Releasing the helpline number, he said that daughters should seek help from the nearest community center or call the hotline.
