Veteran broadcaster Jagjit Singh Kohli has introduced a new digital service called GurbaniTube, celebrating the quarter‑century milestone of continuous live Gurbani telecasts.
Jagjit Singh Kohli, a well‑known figure in Sikh religious broadcasting, launched a digital platform named GurbaniTube. The inauguration was held to commemorate 25 years of uninterrupted live telecasting of Gurbani, a milestone that underscores the community's commitment to sharing sacred hymns.
The live Gurbani telecast, which began in 1999, has become a staple for devotees across India and abroad, offering daily recitations through television and online channels. Over the past quarter‑century, the service has helped preserve and disseminate Sikh scripture to a broad audience.
GurbaniTube is designed as an on‑demand streaming service, allowing users to access Gurbani recitations at any time via smartphones, tablets or computers. The platform aggregates recordings from various singers and institutions, providing a searchable library that aims to make the scriptures more accessible, especially to younger listeners accustomed to digital media.
During the launch, Kohli emphasized that the new service seeks to bridge traditional worship with modern technology, ensuring that the spiritual content remains relevant in an increasingly connected world. He indicated that the platform will continue to expand its catalogue and incorporate features such as subtitles and thematic playlists.
The initiative is expected to attract both longtime followers and new audiences, reinforcing the role of digital tools in sustaining religious practice.
