Sandeep Singh (Punjabi: ਸੰਦੀਪ ਸਿੰਘ; Hindi: संदीप सिंह) (born: 27 Feb 1986) is an Indian National Hockey Player and an ex-Captain of the Indian National team. He generally features as a full back and is a penalty corner specialist for the team. Sandeep Singh currently holds a DSP Rank in Harayana Police. He belongs to Saini Sikh community of Haryana.
Sandeep Singh hails from Shahabad town in Kurukshetra, Haryana and was born to Gurcharan Singh Saini and Daljit Kaur Saini. His elder brother, Bikramjeet Singh, is also a hockey player and plays for Indian Oil.
His international debut was in Jan 2004 in Sultan Azlan Shah Cup, Kuala Lumpur. He took over as the captain of the Indian hockey team in January 2009 and Rajpal Singh succeeded him later in 2010. Sandeep is a well known drag-flicker. At a time he was said to have the best speed in the world in Drag flick (speed 145km/h). Under his captaincy, the Indian team managed to clinch the Sultan Azlan Shah Cup 2009 after defeating Malaysia in the finals at Ipoh. India won the title after a long wait of 13 years. Sandeep was also the top goal scorer of the tournament.
Bhai Amrik Singh (1948 – June 6, 1984) was the President of the Sikh Students Federation after being elected into the position on July 2, 1977 and remained president until his death on June 6, 1984. He had passed his Masters in Punjabi from Khalsa College in Amritsar. After this he began research work on his Ph.D. thesis.
He was the son of Sant Giani Kartar Singh Bhindranwale, the 13th leader of the Damdami Taksal which meant he was well versed in Gurbani and Sikh literature. He devoted much of his life to Sikh missionary activities. Amrik Singh was also one of the Sikh community's most prominent leaders along with Sant Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale.
On April 26, 1982 a campaign was started to get Amritsar, Punjab, status as a holy city. It was while campaigning for this that Amrik Singh was arrested on July 19, 1982 along with other members of the Damdami Taksal. Sant Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale began the Dharam Yudh Morcha to free Amrik Singh and other prominent Sikhs. The Dharam Yuda Morcha was also the first collective push to implement the Anandpur Resolution which primarily requested more autonomy for the Sikh people, many of whom argued that they were being oppressed and treated unfairly by the Indian government.
