TOPIC OF THE DAY

Zail Singh

Giani Zail Singh (Punjabi: ਜ਼ੈਲ ਸਿੰਘ, May 5, 1916 - December 25, 1994) was the President of India (1982-1987), and the first Sikh to hold India's highest public office and honour.

Zail Singh's public life was long and varied - freedom fighter, state Congress leader, Chief Minister and Union Home Minister. A remarkable fighter against princedom, feudalism and foreign domination in the pre-independence days, he is also remembered for his crusade against communalism, economic disparities and social injustice in the republic. He was the President of India when the infamous Anti-sikh riots took place in New Delhi.
