The Sikh Sanggat of Johor Bahru thronged the local gurdwara for the unveiling of the newly renovated darbar sahib, the main Sikh prayer hall.
They congregated for a kirtan programme followed by an akhand path (continuous reading of the Guru Granth Sahib) for the Vaiskahi celebration.
The darbar sahib has a new carpet, marble for the palki area and a state-of-the-art sound system.
The darbar sahib was last renovated in 2005.
The next phase of the gurdwara’s renovation will also work on other parts of the building, including the langgar area. The presnt gurdwara building was constructed in 1992.
