Daljit explains the Walk’s purpose: “The purpose of the annual event, which is now in its fourth edition, is dual. First being that it replicates the spiritual walks taken by Sikh Guru, Guru Nanak Dev Ji, with his Udasis (followers), who walked more than 28,000 km in his lifetime to spread the message of God to the masses in all corners of the world, and the second to encourage people of the community to walk as it is the simplest forms of exercise and has immeasurable health benefits. It aims to create awareness about the health benefits of walking.”
