Dual citizenship - India!
by Guest JSS- 4 replies

I was just reading an article on Sikhnet about how PM manmohan singh ji plans on offering dual citizenship NRIs. I think this is awesome...i know many sikhs have always complained and rightly so about how sikhs are treated in India...how we are depicted by the government as well as the media...also how all the foreign investment has been made in the south or other areas of india, while Punjab has seen very little foreign investment or creation of new jobs... I think this is a great opportunity for overseas sikhs who are successful to go and pump some money into the Punjab economy, create jobs, buy Land back from all the bhaiyaas who are trying to get into punjab...a great…

Sikhi in Punjab and experience after Sep. 11 by Manvir Singh Khalsa Vaheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Vaheguru Ji Ki Fateh UK, Nov. 20, 2004 Below is a something, which I wrote roughly three years ago.

A little bit of advice, guidance please my piyari sangat ji. This may seem silly and although I have tried to ignore it, I must say that for the past week a few things have been laying heavy on my heart. It was New Years eve night, when I was at the Gurudwara Sahib that I got embroiled in a bit of a heated discussion with a Singh sahib who I have known for a very long time. We were discussing Khalsa Raaj – and I advised him that we need to be the Khalsa before such raaj can happen – I personally could not even call myself an iota Khalsa, so how I expected Raaj was beyond comprehension. I continued my conversation with Singh Sahib and said that having walked off th…

THE LONGING FOR KES by Manvir Singh Khalsa 4 years ago I stopped cutting my hair and kept my Kes. What made me keep my hair? What made me feel the yearning to accept my Guru’s image? What made me want to become close with my Guru? As a child I was encouraged to read stories and sing shabads at the Gurdwara. As a child I was introduced to sewa and was made to distribute langar and parshaad with my brothers. As a child I was made to sit in the Sadh Sangat and listen to Keertan and Katha despite not always understanding. Going back home from the Gurdwara, my parents or family members would ask “what did you learn today?” We would discuss what Giani ji talked about …

Waheguroo Jee Ka Khalsa! Waheguroo Jee Kee Fateh!! Dear brothers and sister, please think and read this message carefully. All these bollywood films make sikhs looks like complete fools, how many times have you seen a singh play a "heroic", "good" role nowdays? Singhs are made to look like complete idiots and generally very bad people. Take for example the film gadar the singh in there is a total clown? Even when the play "bezti" was shown and a few singhs done what had to be done, the sikhs in the uk where protrayed as "Mobs", "Vandals" and one muslim news reporter for the bbc live on air went as far as saying, "... on the BBC. As Hanif Kuersehi really put the boot…

Yeah Dhadi and Kaweshria are known for joking around now and then. -
Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
