SHRI BAHADUR SINGHJI SINGHI
the past year on the Singhi Series alone they have spent over Rs, 20,000/-. I have already, mentioned how Rabu Rajendra Singh purchased for the Bhavanthe valuable Nahar collection. Babu Narę Idra Singh has also spent Rs. 39,000/- for a foundation of a Jain Bhavan al Calcutta., Babu Rajendra Singh and Babu Narendra Singh have also very generouly promised me to continue to meet all the expenses of the Singhi Jain Serius and, requested me to bring out as many works as possible, at whatever cośt so that this unique series fennded and cherished by their late lamented father may continue to bring to light the invaluable treasures of Jain literature and culture.
In recógtrition of his unique assistance the Bharatiya Vidya Bhayan has decided to perpetuate Singhiji's memory by naming its Indological library after him. Further, one of its main halls will bear his name. The Bhavan's Jain Department will also be known as the Singhi Jain Shikshapith.f
