Flood relief in punjab

As of early September 2025, Punjab is confronting a severe flood crisis impacting the Indian state socially and economically. Punjab in India is experiencing severe, worst-in-decades floods, affecting millions of people who have been displaced from their homes, significant farmland damage as of early September 2025. The floods, caused by heavy monsoon rains and swollen rivers like the Ravi, Beas, and Sutlej, have submerged villages and farmlands, impacting the state's agricultural economy. Rescue operations by the National Disaster Response Force (NDRF), State Disaster Response Force (SDRF), and Army are underway.

Heavy rainfall and floods have affected over 1,000 villages, disrupting daily life and agriculture.
The state government has closed all schools and higher education institutions in affected areas until at least September 3.
More than 1,000 villages are affected, and over 96,000 hectares of farmland are submerged, causing huge losses to farmers during the paddy-growing season.
This is being described as Punjab's worst flooding in nearly four decades, with widespread devastation to livelihoods and property.

Miri Piri Welfare Society is collecting donations to provide food, water, shelter, medical aid and other necessities to the affected people of rural Punjab. We have volunteer boots on the ground in Punjab who will be reaching out to the locals with aid. Our appeal is that you share in our effort with your generosity. Any amount helps! Our goal is to collect $50,000 to help those in need.

2021 holiday toy drive

In honor of Sahibazada (prince) Zorawar Singh Ji (age 9 year) and Sahibzada Fateh Singh Ji's (age 7 year) loving memory, Miri Piri Welfare Society of Sacramento, CA is holding a toy drive for local children under the ages of 12. Sahibzada Zorawar Singh Ji and Sahibzada Fateh Singh Ji were the sons of the tenth Sikh Guru Gobind Singh Ji. Sahibzadas are given the holy title BABA, a Persian word meaning \’father\’ or \’grandfather\’, is used among Sikhs as a title of affection and reverence, especially for the one who combined Piety with the exercise of a secular authority.

Baba Zorawar Singh Ji and Baba Fateh Singh Ji exhibited these traits as the leaders of Sikh faith at their young age. They were captured by the Mughal ruler, Wazir Khan, at the tender ages of 9 and 7 years old respectively and cajoled to convert to Islam. True to their Sikh faith, they refused.

Wazir Khan committed the most gruesome act which goes against all tenets of honor and principle. He declared the two innocent boys to be enemies of the Mughal Empire and ordered them to be bricked alive. The courageous princes refused and were incarcerated into the wall. The wall, however, broke down before the boys lost their breath and then was committed the most ghastly acts of all! Wazir Khan ordered the executioners to slit the throats of the young princes.

To honor their legacy, Miri Piri Welfare Society is holding a toy drive to spread happiness, love and cheer among all children in the local community. Anyone interested in donating new unwrapped toys may bring toys to our office at 10265 Rockingham Dr, Suite 130-140, Sacramento, CA 95827. For more information, please call us at 530-574-1942.

All local community members are welcome to bring their children to our office and pick up a toy on December 4th, 2021 between 11 AM and 4 PM.

Supporting farmers protest - new delhi, india

The farmers are camping along at least five major highways on the outskirts of New Delhi and have said they won’t leave until the government rolls back what they call the “black laws.” They have blockaded highways leading to the capital for three weeks, and several rounds of talks with the Indian government have failed to produce any breakthroughs.
