Diljit Singh Bedi

The Custodian of Sikh Literary Heritage

- 

The Bedi family of Amritsar, heirs to a luminous tradition of literary, spiritual, and intellectual service, have left an indelible imprint on Punjabi letters and Sikh historiography.

From Lal Singh Bedi (1920-2000), whose Bedi Nivas became a nucleus of literary exchange, to the critical voices of Dr. Harjit Singh Bedi and Dr. Harchand Singh Bedi, this lineage has nurtured a fertile ground for reflection, creativity, and scholarship. Among them, inspite of Dr Harchand Singh Bedi ,the name of Diljit Singh Bedi (1960-2025) shines with particular distinction for his relentless dedication to Sikh history, heritage, and literary documentation.

S. Diljit Singh Bedi, revered scholar and humble sevadar of the Panth, passed away on Saturday night after a brief illness. His demise cast a wave of grief across Sikh circles. Known for his erudition and gentle nature, he enriched Sikh heritage through numerous writings and books.Bedi Sahib's life was one of quiet dedication, where scholarship and humility found their true expression in service to the Panth.
