Nadda also cited the union government's decisions such as the opening of the Kartarpur Sahib corridor, the FCRA registration for donations to the Golden Temple, and the action against the accused in the 1984 anti-Sikh riot cases. 

 

He said the BJP highly regarded the contribution and sacrifices of the community for the country and will keep working for its welfare. 

 

The BJP has been in an overdrive to deepen its bond with Sikhs and is looking to put up a strong fight in the Lok Sabha polls in Punjab, where they are in a majority. 

 

A number of well-known Sikh politicians from the state have joined the party recently.
