Don't think prison would have been beneficial in this case, but wonder if sentence would have been different if the guilty was a Singh of the same age. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10160329/Law-graduate-ran-killed-pedestrian-51-pressed-accelerator-instead-brake.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ico=taboola_feed_article_desktop_news Law graduate, 23, ran over and killed pedestrian, 51, after she lost control of her BMW and pressed the accelerator instead of the brake, court hears Raveena Raizada ploughed into a pedestrian after losing control of her BMW Manjit Singh Khaira was walking along the pavement when he was fatally struck The graduat…

https://www.eurasiareview.com/21032021-understanding-the-khalistan-menace-oped/ Understanding The Khalistan Menace – OpEd March 21, 2021 Pankaj Kumar Sain* 5 Comments By Pankaj Kumar Sain* This article is centered over the secessionist demand emerged for a separate land of “Khalistan” from India. Ironically, this demand for a separate land is raised in the name of a Sikh religion that never supported separatism and stands for unity and oneness of all human beings. The demand for Khalistan at the contemporary juncture caught international attention due to referendum campaigns, rallies and social media platforms. Moreover, the violence during the 1…

So why is Laughter good for your health ? Laughter makes you feel good. And the good feeling that you get when you laugh remains with you even after the laughter subsides. Humor helps you keep a positive, optimistic outlook through difficult situations, disappointments, and loss. In fact laughter is so powerfull it has helped people in life threatening situations back to health. Humor changes behavior - when we experience humor we talk more, make more eye contact with others, touch others, etc. Humor increases your get-up-and-go, and with increased vigor we perform activities that we might otherwise avoid. The lack of humor in your life increases distress. so lighten up…

The Punjabi community in the UK is celebrating the success of former Army man and influencer Inderraj Singh Dhillon who has recently broken a European powerlifting record by lifting 375.5 kg in the 120-kg category. An elated Inderraj, who posts his training and contests as @beardedwarrior1 on Instagram, after his sterling performance in Poland, said,” My first international and I walked with a gold deadlift medal, a silver squat medal and a European Deadlift Record. Going from nearly pulling out to hitting the podium twice was surreal…” https://indianexpress.com/article/cities/chandigarh/london-notes-good-news-uk-punjabi-bodybuilder-chandigarh-8341984/

You make a great point. Nobody is going to mess with an economic giant consisting of over 1 billion people because some random, uneducated pendus who have no money, no organization and no power. Sikhs are very clueless. Just browsing SikhSangat is extremely depressing. I think there was a thread a long time ago where people were speculating on the worldwide Sikh population, and everyone was just pulling random crazy numbers out of their @sses (like over 100 million). -

Sikhs will not be able to move forward and progress until we stop: 1. Attaching importance to silly things and 2. Living in the past (and even worse: living in a pretend fairy tale version of the past) The Koh-i-noor diamond is not some sort of special symbol of Sikh sovereignty. It has just been a status symbol for various rulers over time. The Sikh obsession with it is corny and pathetic on multiple levels. It's like caring about random material possessions of some rich person just because that rich person comes from the same background as you. Also, Sikhs crying about the British taking it is silly considering that Ranjit Singh took it from someone. What is the appropriate amount of time to go back to determine the "rightful" owner of anything? -

Why does it matter that you aren't the only one who engages in sentimental revisionism about Ranjit Singh's kingdom? Does the fact that, in addition to you, a large proportion (probably a majority) of our people are misguided and misinformed somehow make it less cringe-worthy? Regarding why Sikhs remember Maharaja Ranjit Singh and not the other various Sikh rajas, there are two reasons: 1. Ranjit Singh had a much larger kingdom but, moreover: 2. 95% of today's Sikhs (including Malwai) probably are unaware of the existence of the other rajas in any case We are sadly one of the most clueless and ill-informed groups of people on the planet. I bet you more than 95% of Sikhs who have heard of Ranjit Singh also believe that his empire included all of modern Indian Punjab.
