Harcharan Singh 19, of Nankana Sahib is the first Pakistani Sikh in the country’s 58-year history who has been commissioned in the Pakistan Army as an officer. The minorities in Pakistan are allowed to sit in all examinations, including the one conducted by Inter Services Selection Board (ISSB), but neither a Hindu nor a Sikh had ever been selected for army service since the country’s inception. Though, many Christians have served in the army.

Harcharan was skeptical in 2007 as he participated in the ISSB’s preliminary tests, thinking that such examinations were not meant for (Sikhs) as he could not get through the initial phase last year. “This year, I got through the preliminary phase and appeared in the ISSB examination. However, I was mentally prepared to settle for admission in BA (Architecture) in the National College of Arts”.

“It was the happiest moment of my life when I came to know about my selection in the army. I am privileged to have this honour which none of my predecessors could ever achieve,” Harcharan told Dawn.

Harcharan, who passed his FSc (pre-engineering) in 2004 with 726 marks, wants the government to open the doors for his community to the law enforcement agencies as well.

Harcharan passed his matriculation from the Government Gurunanak High School, Nankana Sahib, with 677 marks. He says that his school should be equipped with a modern laboratory and a competent teaching staff.

He says when his fellow Sikhs in Nankana Sahib learned about his selection in the army they really felt proud of him. It has also changed their perception. Now they believe that young Sikhs have a fair chance to join the country’s most prestigious institutions.

Having a younger brother and three elder sisters, he wants his brother to follow suit. He says after the death of his father, a shopkeeper, some seven years ago, the credit of their education goes to his mother. “My mother wants me to earn a good name for the country.”

He says that his family migrated to the Northern Areas at the time of partition and in 1970s shifted to Nankana Sahib.

Terey uthaye gaye swalan vich menu iko sawal changa lagga (baki tan sarey ehda lagda jidda India News Media Channel ne puchey hunde aa), oh hai ke "6. j ode muhre koi sikh hou fer... te o sikh aago waheguru waheguru kahu.... fer harcharan ki karu..??"

Ek sipahi da kam hai apne desh de layi jan di bazi lagauni. Bhavein aggeyon banda kisey vi pakh da hove. Pakistani army vich Musalman ne, te India di army vich vi Musalman, oh vi kisey tara kuch karde hi hoyuge.

Tenu pata hona ke KPS Gill apne app nu Sikh akhwaunda, te tun apeyi soch ohne ki kuch keeta. Hor vi Sikh si jina ne bagawat keeti, te ohna nu jaa ta mar ditta geya, ja deport kar ditta geya.

BTW, this sikh can be seen in this topic's video: U.S. Military Rejects The Sikh Identity
