VANCOUVER, July (Malkit Singh) – Vancouver’s beaches mark the 110th anniversary of the sacrifice made by the passengers of the ‘Guru Nanak Ship’ that fell victim to racism off the coast of Vancouver nearly eleven decades ago, a day to defend a fearless idea. The commemorative event was held, which was attended by social and political dignitaries associated with the Canadian Punjabi community. During this period, after important discussions, three important resolutions were passed.
The first resolution passed demanded that the ship be restored to its original name ‘Guru Nanak Ship’ instead of its current name ‘Kamagata Maru Ship’. Thus, in another important proposal in this regard, a demand was made to stop the series of superficial honors and to stop the misuse of taxpayers’ money for such honors. The third resolution thus passed seeks to correct the historical record in this regard and display the name ‘Guru Nanak Jahaz’ in all educational institutions, cultural institutions and museums in honor of the Ghadri Babas and appropriately preserve the legacy of this historic voyage.
