Gursaran Singh, Gill, son of Faujdar Singh, Village Jagdeo Kalan,
District Amritsar. He is one of the most prominent Ghadarites in Panama.
According to a letter published in the 'Akali-te-Pardeshi" of Amritsar for
13th October 1926, a sum of Rs. 2,695 was collected by Gursaran Singh
and his compatriots and sent to Baba Wasaka Singh (W-6) and Santokh
Singh (since dead) of the Desh Bhagat Parwar Sahaik fund (fund for the relief of the families of political prisoners). In October of the same year,
he was reported to have written a somewhat intemperately worded letter
to the "Desh Sewak" of Jullundur styling himself as Secretary of the
Panama Central American Indian Society. In another letter, dated 16th
October 1926, to the Editor of the 'Desh Sewak’, he accused the
bureaucracy of dividing the Sikh Panth and condemned Sardar Mehtab
Singh’s action in securing his conditional release. In February 1927 he
contributed an article headed "East Indians of Panama refuse to take part
in the Royal Procession" to the ’United States of India', a seditious paper
published in San Francisco. In this article he exhorted Indians in Panama
not to welcome the Duke and Duchess of York on their visit to Panama in
January 1927. In view of this, the question of asking the Republic to
deport Gursaran Singh was contemplated, but was eventually abandoned
in 1927. He remitted money for the Kirti in 1927 and sent a letter to the
'Ghadr' in August 1929, in which he clearly shows himself to be a
member of the Ghadr Party. In February 1932 he was reported to be one
of the Secretaries of the Panama Branch of the Ghadr Party. He has
recently applied to the British Consular authorities in Panama for a
passport to Jamaica in British Honduras Address in Panama P. B. 165
and 605 Ancon, C.
