Chamkaur Sahib, December 21
Ganga Sagar and weapons exhibited at Katalgarh Sahib and Sikhs beating drums on elephants and Nihangs riding horses were the main attraction on the concluding day of Shaheedi Samagam.

Thousands of devotees continued to visit gurdwara to have a glimpse of Ganga Sagar. Not only Ganga Sagar but also Rai Aziz Ullah Khan, an MP from Pakistan, who brought it here became revered for devotees. They sought his blessing and asked for his autographs. “ I belong to the family of rulers of Raikot to whom Guru Gobind Gobind Singh had gifted Ganga Sagar 300 years ago. I am happy with the welcome and respect shown to me by the devotees. Ganga Sagar will also be exhibited during Shaheedi Samagam at Fathegarh Sahib and at Raikot in Ludhiana” he said while talking to The Tribune. Besides it, the weapons used by Guru Gobind Singh also attracted the devotees.

Major Singh, a Nihang, was seen wearing 35 Kg turban. This 450 meter-long turban was another centre of attraction during the procession. He took four hours to dress up and has been wearing this turban in every religious function held in Punjab since 1997.
