This happened a few minutes away from the Harmandir Sahib, it shows how little the Sikhs can do in India. One Kirpan against a mob is of little use, when Sikhs are attacked its always against a massive mob, often aided by the Police. Our Jathabandis need to take collective action, however most are under the control of India and have done nothing.A bigger insult is that it happens on Hola Mohlla, the anti Sikh groups are basically saying the Sikh warriors are for show only these days.If only a few Nihangs turned up in Amritsar they would get the message however no one comes to a Sikhs aid.

one question to O.P,, why are you targeting Dalits??? Dalits are also a part of Sikhism ..they form a great majority. Removing turbans and pulling someone sikh's hair is the act of Hindus and those dalits who consider themselves as Hindu or Ravidassis or valmikiess..............

Completely agree, 'nalwa' can u amend ur posts as they marginalise dalits/valmiks in general - doesn't do Sikhs from this background any justice.

Photos should b shared to via social media to ensure justice is done!

Forget the Nihangs, where are the Sikhs of Amritsar? It is true that had the incident happened outside Punjab the Sikhs even though they are a minority would have raised hell. But it looks like in Punjab the dog Badal and his BJP allies have taken away any ankh that Sikhs had. When over half the male Sikh population does not keep keep their Kesh then how can you expect them to know that their religion has been insulted by these Hindu scum?

Although we begin to forget our slave status within India but with the passing of every such incident, we are again and again reminded of the importance of being Tyar Bar Tyar Khalsa as Guru Gobind Singh Jee wanted us to be and as Sant Jarnail Singh bhindranwale did parchar of. Look at Sant Jee, where ever he went he always had a teer, 3 foot long kirpan, revolver besides his Kakaar Kirpan. He always encouraged the Sikh youth to become Amritdharis but to also be Shastardhari. Look at the police who just stood there. They didn't do anything. So one thing is for sure, Sikhs cannot depend on Indian police for protection and safety. The only thing that will protect us is living life according to the Bachans of Guru Gobind Singh Jee.

Just read the letters of Bhai Rajoana and Bhai Hawara. They always encourage the Sikhs to keep fit while becoming observant in Sikhi.

why don't nihangs come and give justice do these goons

Bro forget about Nihangs. Question should be, where are the Sikhs in general? this is besti of the entire Sikh Nation. Every Sikh is a Sipahi. When we see a Sikh in distress, it's our duty to help our brother and not just stand there like a silent spectator. During the 80s right after 1984, in many parts of urban Punjab, there became such a situation that there were attacks on Sikhs in the urban areas of Punjab which were heavily dominated by Hindus because back than there were very few Sikhs in the urban centers of Punjab.

Right after 1984 my uncle and his friend both riding on a motorcycle were passing by when they saw a lone Sikh being attacked by a couple of Hindus. They began doing beadbi of the Sikhs dastar and beard. Just then my uncle and his friend stopped immediately and came to the aid of the Sikh while beating up those Hindu attackers. Back then Sikhs had a sense of brotherhood. An attack on one was an attack on all.

This new incident happened in Amritsar of all place. Amritsar is like our historic cultural/religious capital. Historically Sikhs have always made a decisive last stand in this holy city. This is one place where beadbi of a Sikh's dastar should not take place.

WJKK WJKF,

I agree with your post, I just don't understand why the nihang don't do anythink? The anti-sikh groups opinion of sikhs being weak now has to derive from partly this and also as you mentioned politically led agenders.

I agree with your posts, the ideology behind your opinion is spot on , however the reality is not many so called sikhs are tyar bar tyar, even if they carry Shastar how many know how to affectively use it?

We really have come so from the khalsa fauj because of westernisation and other contributing factors. The only tyar bar tyar we many sikhs are, is when theirs a party with sharaab!

The sad fact of the matter is, their is a certain arrogance amongst all Indians which I personally think is cultural and characteristic for the whole of India, if someone was being attacked in the uk, no matter who, someone would of come to the aid of the victim. Were at a stage of time now what mirrors when our guru tegh bahadur shaderdi took place and our guru gobind Singh asked shaheed bhai jeevan Singh ji, "was their no sikhs there", to which the answer he received guy ji replied he would create such a sikh, one would be recognisable in a crowd of 100,000, unfortunately, these days they are distinguishable, but not recognisable as the shakti of many sikhs has all but gone. In the sense that no one, not even sikh police officers, local sikh residents of Amritsar could come to the aid of our brother who was attacked.

How sad.

The thing is if Sikhs arm themselves in India they are classed as terrorists and the crackdowns start again. The Sikh sangat need to come out on mass and protest against the offenders. It will take effort to break away from the structures that keep Sikhs as slaves, but can be done.
