Sangat Matrimonial was introduced on Sangat Television in March 2011 through a weekly show hosted by Surjit Kaur. The concept was warmly received by parents and young people, leading to a growing number of members. Recognizing the need for a secure platform, we began developing a website, which launched in 2012. Since then, the website has undergone several redevelopments, incorporating improvements to better serve UK-based Sikhs on their matrimonial journey. Our commitment remains to provide a safe and supportive environment for finding the perfect life partner.
