From Das to Singh- Journey of Dharminder Singh

Dharminder Singh of the Ludhiana district was born in Bihaar to a Hindu family as Dharminder Das. In an attempt to lift themselves out of poverty, his family moved to Punjab in search for better employment opportunities, eventually, settling in the Ludhiana District. It was in Punjab, that Dharminder grew up and started his own… family, marrying Rani Kaur in 2002. Despite working tirelessly, Dharminder faced difficulty finding consistent employment. Financially supporting his three young children and their education was becoming increasingly burdensome. Under constant stress, Dharminder’s health quickly deteriorated. He became more hopeless with each passing day and in attempt to cope, began drinking. Dharminder Das had hit rock bottom and was ready to give up. However, fate had other plans for Dharminder, and things took a drastic turn when he got hired at a local Mechanic Shop owned by Sikh man.
