OUR LEGACY
History of Sant Ranjeet Singh Memorial Academy
The foundation of Sant Ranjeet Singh Memorial Academy is deeply
rooted in faith, spirituality, and a commitment to serving society
through education.
Sant Ranjeet Singh's father, Sardar Hardutta Singh, was a resident
of Punjh Garian in Punjab. He was deeply saddened because none of
his children survived after birth. During this difficult period,
Sant Baba Atar Singh Ji of Mastuana Sahib visited a nearby area for
a religious programme. Sardar Hardutta Singh met him and shared his
sorrow and concerns.
After listening carefully, Sant Baba Atar Singh Ji asked him,
“When you cultivate a landlord's land, what do you give in return?”
Hardutta Singh replied, “We share a portion of the harvest.”
Sant Baba Atar Singh Ji then asked, “Are you willing to share the
blessings bestowed upon you by God?” With complete faith, he agreed.
Thereafter, Bibi Dhan Kaur gave birth to three sons, all of whom
survived. The youngest among them was Sant Baba Ranjeet Singh,
born on 23rd March 1960. From childhood, he displayed remarkable
intelligence, discipline, and leadership qualities. During his
primary and junior education, he won numerous awards and
distinctions.
After completing his education, Sant Baba Ranjeet Singh joined
the Indian Army. Known for his punctuality, dedication, and
disciplined lifestyle, he served with great commitment. However,
destiny had a greater purpose for him. Inspired by spirituality
and divine guidance, he eventually resigned from military service
and dedicated himself to meditation, social service, and religious
gatherings.
He regularly organized Satsang programmes in Sunderwal and
surrounding regions. During this period, he envisioned the
establishment of an educational institution that would provide
quality education to children residing between Sunderwal and
Daudpur. Unfortunately, before witnessing the realization of
this dream, Sant Baba Ranjeet Singh left for his heavenly abode
on 7th December 2002.
Following his departure, Sant Baba Balakar Singh Ji continued
his spiritual mission. Bibi Malkeet Kaur played a significant
role in fulfilling Sant Baba Ranjeet Singh's dream by helping
acquire land in the name of Sant Ranjeet Singh Academy.
Through the collective efforts and dedication of his followers
and well-wishers, the dream finally became a reality in April
2008.
Sant Ranjeet Singh Memorial Academy officially commenced its
journey on 1st May 2008. Sardar Gurmail Singh and Sardar
Baljinder Singh facilitated the registration of the institution
under Isser Singh Sikshan Sansthan, which
continues to manage and operate the academy today.
Since its inception, the academy has remained committed to
providing quality education, moral values, and holistic
development to students while carrying forward the vision
and ideals of Sant Baba Ranjeet Singh Ji.
