Baba Jee was invited by the Kenyan Government to meet the Queen Mother on her tour of Kenya In the late 1970's.
While he lived in Kericho(Kenya) he helped the local community in many ways suchas giving food, donating money to the local schools, employing people at his factory of Kericho Wagon works.
In return the local community named the town square after him as Puran Singh Square.
Now at Baba Jee's residence, a gurudwara has been built.
When Baba Jee arrived in England in 1975, he organised along with the Jatha the first smagam to be held in London at Mangat Hall in July 1976.
He helped sikhism to be recognised as a religion when a sikh boy from Birmingham took his head master to the High Court for not allowing him to wear his turban to school as it was not part of the school uniform.
The High Court Judge ruled that Sikhism is not a cult but one of the major religions of the world.
After the attack at Shri Harminder Sahib, the British Government invited Baba Jee along with our prominent Sikhs to a dinner at 10 Downing Street. To show their support to the sikh people.
He also held numerous Amrit Sanchars at the main Guru Nanak Nishkam Sevak Jatha gurudwara in Birmingham from 1976 to 1982, baptising 100's of sangat yearly.
The Jatha since Baba Jee passed away came under the guidance of Bhai Sahib Bhai Nourang Singh Jee who initiated the Kar Sewa of Shri Harminder Sahib, built a gurudwara at Baba Jee's pind of Gura in India.
He also initiated the building of the Main astaan of the Jatha on Soho Road Birmingham.
The guidance of the Jatha is now under Bhai Sahib Bhai Mohinder Singh Jee, who completed the Kar Sewa of Shri Harnider Sahib, he has now started work fitting filters in to the tank to clean the water.
He has also carried out Kar Sewa at Shri Anandpur Sahib, Shri Kesgarh Sahib, and is currently extending the main astaan at Soho Road.
