NEW DELHI / TORONTO (TIP): For Mr. Baljit Singh Chadha, a leading businessman of Montreal, and his wife, Mandeep Kaur (Roshi) Chadha, the experience of working on an important illustrated book related to Sikhism with two of the top contemporary photojournalists – Raghu Rai and Gurmeet Kaur Sangha Rai – was like a dream come true.
Mr. Baljit Singh Chadha was one of the first businessmen of Indian origin who organized an introductory party for Mark Carney in his election as the leader of the Liberal Party for the post of Prime Minister after Justin Trudeau had announced his decision to quit.Their efforts bore fruit as they travelled all the way from Montreal in Canada to New Delhi in India this week to present a first set of their books to none other than the Union Minister of Petroleum and Natural Gas, Hardeep Singh Puri.
The books, says Baljit Singh Chadha, “are a comprehensive study of heritage, significance and conservatism.”
Raghu Rai is India’s top photojournalist who worked for some of the top media houses in the country, and his wife, Gurmeet Kaur Sangha Rai, is a leading architect.
Gurmeet, who got married at the age of 23, balanced her family and her architectural goals with Raghu Rai. Interestingly, she managed to balance work and family obligations while working on important UNESCO projects, including the GT road project and the Sri Harmandir Sahib project.
