A large-scale cleanliness drive was launched by congregations from various villages in the area to clean and preserve the holy Kali Bein, sanctified by the presence of Guru Nanak Dev. A few days ago, during a meeting led by environmentalist Sant Balbir Singh Seechewal, people from around 40 villages had pledged to take responsibility for maintaining the cleanliness and beauty of the Bein. It was also decided that each village would participate in kar sewa once a week.Under this initiative, congregations from about seven villages—including Chakkchela, Talwandi Madho, Sohal Khalsa, Mala, Sherpur, Seechewal and Tarpur—reached the Bein to carry out the cleaning work. On this occasion, sarpanch Boota Singh Seechewal, sarpanch Amrik Singh and sarpanch Joga Singh appreciated the effort of Sant Seechewal in organising the villages into groups for the service. They said it is a matter of great fortune for them to serve the holy Bein of Baba Nanak. They also mentioned that due to the tireless efforts of Sant Seechewal, the Bein is now flowing again in its original form and the place has become an important pilgrimage site in Sikh history, where thousands of devotees arrive daily for pay obscene and holy bathing.Surjit Singh Shanti, who was part of the sangat, said he feels fortunate to have received the opportunity to participate in this sacred service. He added that the revival of the Bein once seemed nearly impossible, but it became achievable through the collective efforts of the sangat and today it is being discussed worldwide.Sant Balbir Singh Seechewal thanked the Sangat and said that the transformation seen in the Bein over the past 25 years is entirely due to the selfless service of the sangat. He appealed to everyone to understand their responsibility and take part in this cleanliness campaign to preserve the importance and beauty of this sacred place.On this occasion, Gurdev Singh Fauji, Satnam Singh Sadhi, Ranjit Singh, Sukhjit Singh Soni, Gurdeep Singh, Hardev Singh, Gurdeep Singh, Jagjit Singh, Amritpal Singh, Jassa Singh, Gursewak, Jagdeep Singh and Gurpreet Singh, along with a large number of devotees, participated in the karseva.
