As everyone is probably aware the religion figures for the 2001 UK census were released a few months ago. Last week a more detailed report was released which breaks down the figures for religion into ethnicity as well. These figures are available here -; http://www.statistics.gov.uk/downloads/cen...01/S104_E&W.pdf One of the most interesting revelations in these figures for Sikhs in the number of Sikhs amongst the non-Asian ethicities. An important point to remeber with these figures is that the ethicitity question is not related to nationality or country of birth. 1. There were 6,893 Sikhs who were white. This figure is amazing given that there has not been any or…

Kala Afghana Excommunicated from Sikh Panth (2003-07-10) Controversial writer Kala Afghana has been excommunicated by the Sri Akal Takht Sahib, the supreme temporal seat of the Sikhs. Afghana had made disparaging remarks about Gurubanee, Sikh Rahit and prominet Sikh personalities. He had been summoned to the Akal Takht to explain his position, but July 10th, 2003 The decision to excommunicate him came after he failed to present himself before the Takht on that date. Furthermore the Akal Takht Sahib decree stated that Sikhs worldwide should not allow Kala Afghana and his supporters and sympathisers the use of any Panthic stage or platform. Nor should they in any wa…

Waheguroo Jee Ka Khalsa! Waheguroo Jee Kee Fateh!! By Bhai Kulbir Singh, Institute of Gurmat Studies, Gurudwara Tapoban Sahib, Toronto Wednesday, 2nd July 2003 A Sikh jatha was severely beaten by the local Hindu residents in the vicinity of Siri Hemkunt Sahib. The Sikhs fought back bravely but they were greatly outnumbered. The Sikhs were beaten with swords and sticks, and were even stoned by the Hindus there. Some Sikhs were pulled by their hair and severely beaten. The jatha took refuge in the Gurdwara of Gobind Ghaat. The Hindus then attacked the Gurdwara Sahib and damaged the building. To make matters worse, two dozen Sikhs were arrested for defending themselves.…

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh, As you will see from the date of the BBC report below it is coming up to one year since the Indian state admitted that the five 'Pakistani terrorists' that they claimed were responsible for the execution of 35 Sikh men on the eve of Bill Clintons visit to India were infact innocent Muslim villager's. As you read the article below you will see that DNA samples handled by government agencies had been tampered with. Again this is reluctantly admitted by the state and not simply my or anybody else's opinion. Clearly the killing of these innocents was the first step in covering the complicity of the indian security forces in…
