Jagjit Atwal was born in undivided India (now Pakistan) on December 7, 1929. He was the eldest of three children of Hari Singh and Beant Kaur. Jagjit completed his education and graduated as a civil engineer from the prestigious Roorkee University. He joined the Punjab Irrigation Department to work on the Bhakra Dam and was posted in New Delhi. He married Tejwant in 1956, and they welcomed three children into their family. They moved to Nangal in 1969 and later to Chandigarh in 1974.
Jagjit worked on various hydel projects and retired as chief engineer of the Thein Dam Designs in 1987. He migrated to Canada in 1990 and volunteered and participated in many community organizations. He built relationships within and beyond the family and assisted his spouse while she worked and volunteered in the community. Jagjit developed dementia, and after much time being cared for at home, he spent the later part of his life in a longterm care facility, where he breathed his last on January 10, 2015.
