No, not a relative but I do remember meeting him when very young.

I always thought he was jatt though from what I remember. He never attended Hindu temples but had the Akhand paths at the gurudwaras 

There is a lot of these families that have one foot in Sikhism and one in Hinduism.

It could also be the politics at the gurudwaras have turned many people off and they are heading back into Hinduism, or other faiths and deras. 
 

I’ve heard that over and over again as well
