#15. Tarunpreet Singh on WA Sikh History, Contributions, Renaming a Street & Community Engagement

Tarunpreet Singh is a tireless advocate of Sikh History in Australia. Researching the pioneer followers of Sikh ideology, he highlights the lives of those who came from lush green fertile lands to desert landscape in Australia leaving a legacy of success enduring life without a family during late 19th century or early 20th century.

We thank and credit Tarunpreet Singh, Shire of Irwin and Irwin Districts Historical Society for the images in this podcast.
