By Rammana Prince Salim (Jahangir) was bigot from the get go and relied on foreigners. This is how the foreign faction got started consolidating to the exclusion of local Hindu rulers and thus became more and more isolated as a armed camp (horde) surrounded by a Hindu sea. Exactly!! Jahangir was bi...

I think you misunderstood. I am not talking about Indian army but about Paksitani army. They do subscribe to the logic of communities and religion (and even caste). Had they surrendered to a Tamilian or somebody from South in 1971 we might have broken their H&D. They have used their Lahori Logic...

How does it matter if he is a Punjabi. We are getting back to back Punjabi Generals economy is booming and Pakistan is reaching a boiling point. Though!! It will be easier for Pakistanis to surrender to a Punjabi general (like Gen. Arora) (less attack on their H&D than if they surrender to a Ta...

Kakkaji!!

This news was known to the BRites since September of 2006.

C Shankar, Retail chaining by farmers is a tough job conidering that illiterate small farmers(5 acres - 10 acres) are always on debt. Retail Chaining is being somewhat done by farmers (on a limited basis) for vegetables, etc. not for grains or other cash crops. I belive MS Gill (former election comm...

but how feasible is it to combine a bit of machinery with a lot of labour to process, say, Theo's pineaapples ? Why would you invest in a complicated machinery when you can hire cheaply whole families for unskilled labour work? Problem is overpopulation.. A single person takes care of 1000 acres in...

Kakkaji,

Sounds very much correct! since 1930s is when these guys (Rahmat ali, et all) are having delusions of Punjabi Mughalistan. Can we get the percentage of Punjabi muslim soldiers vs. Punjab non-muslim solders in INA?

it really pisses me off when i read of Sardar Patel and how he died just 3 years after independence and left India to Nehru. and now this thing about Bose makes me even more pissed off. how in the god-damned hell did our country fall into Gandhi-Nehrus' hands when there were several other figures l...

Punjabi vegetables for Britain.

I was watching Cricket Star last night. So!! A team had to vote out two weakest players (Robin Singh, Kapil Dev, Manjrekar and Jadeja picked two weakest players one Sikh and One Muslim) based on one 20/20 cricket match they played. These cricket legends thought that the muslim guy was the weakest du...

Sandeep, does Dixie Gurudwara have any special relationship with Damdami taksal ?? NO! not like the days of 1980s! Damdami Taksal at Chowk Mehta is not involved in active politics anymore (does not look like from media). They are mostly trainers of Granthis (Sikh history how to read and sing bani)....

This feeling of insecurity is misconstrued as being 'above the law' in most cases and politicians w/vested interests twist this feeling to fuel fire amongst a disgruntled majority. Give 10 yrs time, with present rate of social development we will have a more integrated society and people of all sec...

Look at the list of election candidates for Dixie Gurdwara (all Jutts)

Raju!

Dixie Gurudwara is definetely controlled by Jats from Jalandhar/Hoshiarpur area (Doaba Area), . Huge majority of Sikhs in Canada, USA, UK are Jats from Doaba.

That's true! Again it depends how well educated the community is! for example in New York City there used to be one Gurudwara (Richmond Hill) Lubana Community (Traders who are Sikhs from Punjab) became very strong and when Bibi Jagir Kaur became SGPC secretary due to her intrigues these guys in NY c...

by Raju ramana, take an example of Sikh Gurudwaras. Currently there are Ramgarhia Gurudwara, Jat Sikh Gurudwara, Tharkan Gurudwara, Dalit Sikh Gurudwara, Nirankari Gurudwara, Udasis/misc Gurudwara. And ofcourse there is no control by Govt over Sikh religious institutions. It is self managed. Sandee...

Sikh perspective about Meat vs Vegetarian. Many Sikh gurus ate meat. Sikhs have a Rahit Maryada that is approved by Akal Takht. Akal Takht Jathedar is elected unanimously by a Sarbatt Khalsa (all Khalsa). Rahit Maryada was first started by Sri Guru Gobind Singh in 1699 when Khalsa was created. He fo...

This is jut a PR before Commonwealth games or to lure more foreigners into India. Why can't we manage the traffic first and then advertise it? Roads that accomodate all type of traffic from bicycles to rickshaws as well as bullock carts is the need., so create wide shoulders that accomodate non and ...

Talking about rituals and traditions. This is how our desi society make traditions out of nothing. Nanak Says that pilgrimages do not erase your sins or send you to heaven now Sikhs have Golden Temple and many other gurudwaras as pilgrimages. Nanak says that Janeu (sacred thread) does not really mak...

Rony, Here is what I meant by Dharm Yuddh. Sikhs see no difference between Dharma Yuddh to rescue Sita vs Dharma Yuddh to rescue Indian women from Abdali or Nadir Shah (as Sikhs did)., or even following on the Hukamnana issued by Guru Gobind singh or later by Akal Takht to rescue and restore any wom...

Buddhists and jains also dont consider themselves Hindus,but unlike sikhs they did not resort to voilence islam style.

No! Sikhs resort to violence of Krishna, Ramchandara and Prithvi style., i.e Instead of Jihad it is Dharam Yuddh.

Thanks S.Valkan. by Kumar Re: the sikh priest "JS Vedanti", every time I saw his name in the news, I used to wonder whether people realize the inner similarities, especially during the 80s. People do! but economics do not. Punjab in 80's was never a religious issue., but an economic one. D...

S.Valkan. Is advata same as vedanta? (both look the same). Do you know that Jathedar (leader) of Sikhs (there are five Takhts and Akal Takht at Amritsar is supreme) goes by name "Joginder Singh Vedanti "., meaning he considers himself as a VEDANTI. What you have describe above is so close ...

Satyamev Jayate = Truth Always Wins

Sat Sri Akal = Supreme Truth is the Akal (omnipresent, never ending/beginning) that is in you.

Namaste = The True god in me Salutes the True God in you.

Only kafirs can discuss these concepts, believers are not allowed.

Cotton production of India during the current year is est...

I do believe economies of scale apply to cities as well. The small medium cities in the US are in a fight for survival as the best continue to leave for the big cities. In USA, internal migration to big cities is not because of poverty but other reasons. It is much easier for Indian, Chinese, Russi...

The challenge is to build even more cities. To build the dams, power plants etc that enable large cities to function. To build the road and rail that connect them, to build the infrastructure. Exactly! but these cities should not be mega cities eating up resources rather small medium size cities th...

Problem is that in India democracy is weak while bureaucracy is strong. Why can't Sarpanch of the village collect money for taxes instead of Tahsildar? (Tahsildar is a post that was created by Akbar the mughal king) Why can't elected Panchayat of the village hire their own teachers, police officials...

Instead of building bypasses, flyovers and MRTS in cities., focus should be on de-congesting the big cities by shifting the industries (especially upcoming which don't require much effort) into the hinterland. 1. I would move all the industry out of Delhi (only business Delhi should have is to gover...

Central Government does indeed spends lots more money in its controlled cities. City like Ludhiana and Amritsar are gutted while non-producing cities like Chandigarh gets all the money. Ludhiana has hosiery, Bike and machinery industry along with agriculture. (City of over 50 lakhs does not even hav...

What happened to the regiments that were started by the Bombay Presidency? Are they still around? I know that Bengal and Madras still are.
