Last month, Mr Singh broke religious protocol by removing his turban to help a six-year-old injured boy who was bleeding profusely after being struck by a car while he was walking towards his school.
The boy suffered serious head and internal injuries.
Mr Singh received hundreds of Facebook hero-grams from the US, Europe and India and his story was shared tens of thousands of times on social media.
Mr Singh said he did not believe his actions were heroic, and that anyone would have done the same in the situation.
