September 16th, 2006 by admin

Amritsar , Panjab – Satpreet Singh and Harmanjit Singh have written technical research papers which have been accepted for international conferences in Houston and Prague , respectively. However, they cannot afford to attend the international conferences to present their papers. It is not often that we read of bright young scholars who have earned international acclaim after a struggle through village schools and poverty. Satpreet and Harmanjit are two such scholars of Guru Nanak Dev University , (GNDU), Amritsar , who have approached UNITED SIKHS for financial help to present their research papers abroad.
