Views of The Scholars
Noted Indian writer Khushwant Singh had this to say about Singh:
Bhagat Puran Singh was no ordinary mortal but undoubtedly the most loved and revered man in the world. I once described him as the bearded Mother Teresa of Punjab. Mother Teresa had the backing of the powerful Roman Catholic Church, the English press and innumerable foundations to give her money. Bhagat Ji Had nothing except his single-minded dedication to serve the poor and the needy. And yet he was able to help thousands of lepers, mentally and physically handicapped and the dying. His name will be written in letters of gold in the history of the world.
According to Gourav Sally,
"I can't explain his selfless services in words because bhagatji's legacy is eternal. he can be well described as one man army who fought for the welfare of the weak section of the society."
