Nepali Sikhs
There are over 3,000 Sikhs living in Nepal now, about 90 percent involved in the transport business and the others selling automobile spare parts. They live in Dhangadi, Birgunj, Palpa, Syangja, Butwal, Bhairahawa, Pokhara, and Janakpur, where branches of the then New Road-based Nepal Public Motor Service were established. About 80 Sikh families reside in Kathmandu, many of them in Kupondol, close to the gurudwara. Every Saturday, they congregate there to help with the community kitchen, and to listen to bhajans, kirtan, and readings from the Guru Granth Sahib.
