Bhai Harvinder Singh Jamshedpuri, an up-and-coming Sikh preacher (kathavachak) and founder of a digital media platform, will make his first programmes in Malaysia, beginning with an event in Melaka on Dec 21 (Sunday).
Aged 40, Harvinder is known for his dynamic speaking style and his willingness to address contemporary Sikh issues, including holding public figures accountable for misrepresenting Sikh principles.
In November 2020, he co-founded JZTV Media, the digital platform behind Jaagdi Zameer TV (ਜਾਗਦੀ ਜ਼ਮੀਰ ਟੀਵੀ), together with editor Preet Singh.
Born in Jamshedpur, Jharkhand, Harvinder undertook formal Gurmat studies under the guidance of Gurmat Gyan Missionary College, Jawaddi (Ludhiana, Punjab).
His parchaar emphasises Panthic unity, discipline and Gurmat education, with his outreach spanning various parts of India.
Harvinder currently leads the Gurmat Prachar Centre in Jamshedpur, a team of about 30 members. The centre regularly organises Gurmat katha, parchaar and samagams across Jharkhand, Punjab, Orissa, Maharashtra, Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, West Bengal and Chhattisgarh, according to a note shared with Asia Samachar.
It has also played a significant role in implementing the Akal Takht maryada in several Jharkhand gurdwaras, with the support of Jathedar Giani Kuldeep Singh Garhgaj, the note added.
