University Of North Carolina Charlotte Apologizes UNITED SIKHS Offers To Train Staff And Campus Security On Sikhism

University Of North Carolina Charlotte Apologizes  UNITED SIKHS Offers To Train Staff And Campus Security On Sikhism

Charlotte, North Carolina/Chandigarh Sep 28, 2022

A Sikh student on the campus of University of North Carolina Charlotte had to face harassment last week. He was handcuffed and detained merely for wearing a kirpan — a Sikh article of faith.

Such mistreatment of a Sikh student and gross ignorance displayed by the 76-year-old university about Sikhism shocked the Sikh community around the world. Sikhs have been part of the American social fabric for over a century. People on social media questioned the lack of understanding about Sikhism at the university, known for taking pride in its diversity.

UNITED SIKHS applauded the quick response from the university — as Chancellor Dr. Sharon L. Gaber issued an apology on the university website. We had written to the Dean of Students, Dr. Christine Reed Davis, seeking an apology for the misconduct that had taken place with Aman Singh. The apology from the Chancellor stated that they will use the incident “as a learning opportunity by engaging in constructive dialogue with Sikh students and employees”.  It also stated that they “apologize”, that the student didn’t feel “welcomed, supported and safe” that day, as they wanted every student to feel so, further adding that they are “committed to ensuring it doesn’t happen again.”

UNITED SIKHS shared with them a Sikhism Fact Sheet. We also offered to provide sensitivity-training to the university staff and security, about Sikhism and Sikh articles of faith.

“Despite curt behavior by the police on the campus, Aman Singh was graceful, resilient and showed leadership — everyone should practice their faith freely and fearlessly,” Manvinder Singh, UNITED SIKHS Advocacy Director said.

“All institutions, particularly, universities that attract students and staff from around the world must have a mandate to sensitize students and staff about Sikhism and other world religions, cultures and traditions. It is essential to create a culture of co-existence to prevent incidents of racism and misconduct with students and members of any community,” he stated.

We appreciate the efforts of Sikh organizations around the world for raising their voice in this case and lending support to Aman Singh.

Everyone should be able to practice their faith freely and without fear. If you face harassment and discrimination because of your faith, please write to us.

Assam Based Mridul Sarma Marks His Debut As A Songwriter

Assam Based Mridul Sarma Marks His Debut As A Songwriter

A romantic single to add sparkle this festive season

Sualkuchi (Assam): Well-versed lyrics plays an important part in the success of a song and it becoming a chart buster too. MRIDUL SARMA is one of those budding talent who is out to prove himself as a songwriter

It may be recalled that once Anil Biswas, the master composer had boldly observed that the principal factor for the success or failure of a song depends on the choice of its lyrics.

On the other hand the Guinness World record holder Sameer Anjaan who has been penning soulful lyrics and ruling since 4-decades is a living example. Sameer is also looking forward in conducting an exclusive class on Unlu to teach lyrics writing to aspiring songwriters.

Here arrives the young songwriter who pens lyrics with passion and obsession. Mridul Sarma hails from Sualkuchi, a small town in Kamrup district in Assam. The town is 35 kms. from Guwahati and is a prominent textile center of Assam.

His had penned his first romantic lyrics…”Ishq Ka Dariya Behne Lagi Hai…, Jiske Yaad Mein Dil Dhadakne Lagi Hai…,

Koi Aahat Si Dil Mein Hone Lagi Hai…”. The song has been composed under the supervision of prominent music composer and singer Santosh Sinha and is available on YouTube for music lovers. The song is a big rage amongst the youngsters.

Mridul Sarma says that the pandemic has brought about changes in people as to how they consume and appreciate music. Even the music not only in films but also in various types of albums has changed. More attention is given to the sound rather than its lyrics.

The 33-year old lyricist recalls,  “The films made during Black & White era are primarily remembered for their immortal melodies. But it is an  irony that the role of the  respective lyricist have been adequately evaluated.”

Mridul Sarma loved to hear music from a very tender age. He made his father (who ran a printing press) buy a music system for his personal use. Slowly he developed a huge library of music cassettes. Every audio cassette released in the market finds its way and adds on to his collections.

He idolises Sameer as his guru and listens to his songs which had been especially scored by Nadeem Shrawan. He even listens to songs penned by Gulzar and Javed Akhtar too. He gets mesmerized whenever he listens their songs He even  likes to watch old romantic movies like “Aashiqui”. “Dil”, “Sadak” etc. again and again.

“The success of a song comes as an assurance,” he adds.  Meanwhile with festivities in the air he is penning some soulful and devotional numbers… Mridul Sarma is the generation next songwriter to be watched out for…..

BUZZFLIX  India’s First Family-Friendly OTT Platform To Launch In Mumbai On September 28

Mumbai, September 27, 2022 – Exciting family days are here! India is set to get its first family-friendly OTT platform in the name of Buzzflix, which is set to launch on Wednesday at a gala event in Mumbai in the presence of noted stars of the Indian film and entertainment industry. The channel will be unveiled and the first content to go live exclusively on the platform will be revealed at the launch event.

Launching under the campaign #SabkaOTT, the platform will have exclusive content featuring projects that can be viewed along with the entire family from the comfort of one’s home. The content will be suitable for all ages and free from any vulgar, sexual or gory material.

Three original projects will be launched at the event along with more than 100 Indian movies being available on the dashboard. Upcoming projects on the platform will also be announced at the event.

With stars and genuine talents such as Mahesh Thakur, Mauli Ganguli, Kanwarjit Singh Paintal, Vijay Patkar, Sada Yadav, Sweta Mehata, Vijay Badlani, Manmeet Kaur, and Rajesh Puri among others, the platform will get a kickstart.

“Buzzflix makes such content wherein family and individuals can sit anywhere and enjoy films, web series and much more. Popularity and demand in youth have led to increasing viewership of digital platforms. But there was a dearth of family-friendly OTT platforms. While we don’t intend to compete with others, we shall give the audience a wide variety of prime and classic content,” said Sameer Shenoy, Co-founder, Buzzflix. Rakesh Thakur, the co-founder of Buzzflix, seconded the opinion while Pravarsen Yesambare, CEO of the platform, further emphasised the quality of the content.

Buzzflix aims to positively cover target audiences nationally, especially in Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities wherein people generally prefer and consume family content. The content is available in Hindi and will be dubbed in other regional languages. More content in other regional languages will also be available in days to come.
