The Scottish Government values and appreciates the contribution that our faith communities make to enrich Scotland socially, culturally and economically. Our Sikh community is a vital part of our cultural heritage and continues to play an important and valued part in our national life.

I visited the new Glasgow Gurdwara for the first time and I am so glad I stay in Pollokshields where I can regularly visit it!

This Gurdwara is a physical depiction of the community spirit and values of the Scottish Sikh community!

The new Gurdwara is a welcomed addition to the Southside community and to Pollokshields. This place is truly multicultural and I look forward to working with the Scottish Sikh community in the future.

As a young Scottish Sikh the new Gurdwara has provided me with an exciting outlet to learn, understand and practice my faith.

Having lived in Glasgow for most of my life, the new Gurdwara is a massive achievement for the Sikh community. I’m proud to have played a part in it.
