History has it that in the early part of 20th century, when the British still ruled India and World War-I was beginning to break out, a few adventurous men from Punjab decided to cash in on the shortage of farm labourers in Australia. …

Tribune News Service New Delhi, May 28 In a damage-control exercise, Canada has deeply regretted the language used by its officials during ‘routine’ visa refusals to some Indian applicants connected with security agencies. The words used had cast false aspersions on the legitimacy of work carried out by these security institutions, it added. “This language, or the inaccurate impression it has created, in no way reflects the policy or position of the Government of Canada. While, under the Canadian law, admissibility to Canada is determined by a number of different criteria, candidate assessments should in no way question Indian institutions which operate under the r…

With the jat Sikhs making the majority in Punjab and having the most power . IE in terms of politics and also religiously. IE all major people controling and running the Gurdwaras being from this demographic. Should other castes be give some kind of quota for top jobs so we can have more equality and diversity in the Punjabi society and social strata. Or are they to power hungry and unable to share? I think that is the only way of achieving a strong United Punjab instead of one where there is to much in fighting and resentments.
