Serving Langgar and cheering on Bhai Fauja Singh who carried the Olympic Torch in Newham, east London. This Report includes the running of Bhai Fauja Singh with Olympics Torch and volunteers who prepared and served Roti Rolls at the London Olympics Torch Relay.
Fauja Singh – The greatest Sikh Sports Personality Alive and Puran Gursikh carried the Olympic Torch through the streets of east London. Fauja Singh, who is 101-years-old, undertook the relay for the second time – he carried the torch in Athens eight years ago. He defied age to participate in several marathons and was a star carrier of the London 2012 torch.
During this event, Sikhs served 20,000 vegetarian meals (Langgar) in celebration of this momentous occasion to nearby passers by and made an effort to spread the message of Guru Nanak, founder of the Sikhism. Fauja Singh is the oldest Olympic Torch bearer in Olympic history. He is a living legend that makes Sikhs proud and is an inspiration to all of us. We are honoured to have met and spent time with him.
Langgar 2012 project is initiated by UNITED SIKHS a UN-affiliated, international non-profit, NGO, humanitarian relief, human development and advocacy organisation. 15 Gurdwaré participated this event. Sikhs Serving Langgar & Embracing Diversity.
