It is a matter of great pleasure that the Punjabi to English translation of the book History of Dera Baba Jassa Singh by the journalist Jaswant Singh Puri is not only praiseworthy but also a significant contribution to the world of literature and cultural preservation. This translation is much more than a mere rendition of words; it is a bridge connecting the rich history, heritage, and cultural legacy of Dera Baba Jassa Singh to a global audience. By making this invaluable piece of history accessible to readers worldwide, Jaswant Singh Puri has opened the doors for people from all walks of life to learn about and appreciate the profound contributions of Dera Baba Jassa Singh.
This translation is a critical step toward ensuring that the rich traditions and values of the Dera are shared beyond linguistic boundaries, allowing those unfamiliar with the Punjabi language to explore this important part of history. It will especially resonate with younger generations, who may not have direct access to the original text, but now have the opportunity to engage with the historical significance of Dera Baba Jassa Singh in English.
