  1. It was only a year ago and we were told that things were going to change now that the 'panthic' sarkar had been re elected. Now we see the result.....never mind fighting against the injustices that were done to us, we are not even allowed to talk about them. And, as usual, Gaddar-eh-kaum is firmly in the camp of the anti-sikhs. Wake up people, we are well and truly slaves in India and we shouldn't be foolish enough to trust Badal.
  2. The film has been banned by the Punjab (Badal) government. Gaddar-Eh-Kaum strikes again !!! But we are still stupid enough to say that it is a Panthic sarkar in power....when will we learn ???? http://www.tribuneindia.com/2013/20130405/punjab.htm#18 Badal govt bans ‘Sadda Haq’ Tribune News Service Chandigarh, April 4 The Punjab Government today imposed a ban on the screening of Punjabi film ‘Sadda Haq’ till further orders. The movie was scheduled for an all-India release tomorrow. An official spokesman said this step had been taken to maintain communal harmony in the state. In Amritsar, heavy security was deployed outside Adarsh cinema hall following a protest by Shiv Sena activists who allegedly tore posters of the film and raised slogans. Members of the Sikh Students Federation also reached there in strength. They warned that none would be allowed to disrupt the screening of the movie. Assistant Commissioner of Police Gurnam Singh said that the police had been deployed outside the cinema hall to prevent any untoward incident.
  3. Yes, that was Ajit Sandhu who many believe faked his suicide and is actually living in Canada. Regarding why the Akal Takhat Jathedar didn't say anything about Swaran Ghotna, that is very clear: it is because he is scared of Badal. Badal's government has been protecting Ghotna since 1997, before that he promised the Panth that he would get justice for the shaheedi of Singh Sahib Bhai Gurdev Singh Ji Kaunke. But, being true to the treacherous, dirty blood that runs through his veins, he went back on his promise as soon as he got into power. In fact, one of Badal's ministers (Sarwan Singh Fillaur) actually went to Ghotna's cremation. Swaran Ghotna killed and tortured thousands of young Sikhs during his campaign of terror. It is a shame that while he was alive Sikhs couldn't have got him into the dock. But, that is what happens when you trust a traitor like Badal. All we can say now is: may his soul rot in hell.
  4. It is good that the anti Akal Takhat, Congress boot-licker Sarna lost. But, let's not be fooled into thinking that Badal is pro Akal Takhat. He only talks about Sikh issues when he needs a stick to beat Congress with. Badal has destroyed the concept and principle of Akal Takhat......he only talks about it now because he is in control of it. Remember that BJP has been in power twice since 1984.....did they punish the guilty Congress devils ??? No. BJP will probably win the next general election and time will tell whether Badal will raise the 1984 issue or will do what he always does and talk about it at election time ONLY.
  5. He was sharpening the main weapon that can be used in western countries - the hands. Sometimes we say "more Singhs should be doing martial arts / combat sports", but this is wrong. More Singhs should not be doing it, ALL Singhs should be doing it. We should all be doing realistic martial arts such as Boxing/wrestling/MMA/Muay Thai.........we don't really have a choice if we have the name Singh. This would be of more benefit to us rather than clinging onto our kirpans ritualistically and making up rules, but not having the skills to deal with a situation should it arise.
  6. Feel really sorry for you Baldeep. Sounds like your father needs to man-up and take hold of the situation. If we had our old culture intact these kind of things would never happen. This is the price we are paying for losing our values and adopting a gutter culture. Jonny 101 has hit the nail on the head with his post, especially the above bit. This is why Western feminism is evil and is no part of Sikhi. It destroys families and communities. Hope the appalling behaviour of your sister improves as she is clearly giving you a lot of stress. Rab Rakha.
  7. Some people on this forum need to talk about things that they actually have done rather then sitting on the sidelines making rules for others. Get out of the house and actually try sparring and then give others advice. It takes guts to get in the ring, and there are practical considerations you have to make. This Singh is actually trying to make his kirpan (and what it stands for) more effective by training. He would be in a better position to stand up for dharam than most people on this forum who just talk.
  8. I'm not sure, haven't seen a link which confirms that anyone has made a u-turn (I only responded to West London Singh's post). Searching on the internet now, I have only found the following links which seem to say that they are sticking to their guns: http://www.tribuneindia.com/2013/20130122/punjab.htm#7 Service fraternity condemns gurdwara action The management had refused to conduct prayers on Lt Gen Dayal’s death anniversary Tribune News Service Chandigarh, January 21 The refusal of a local gurdwara to grant permission to the family of a decorated Lt General to conduct prayers on his death anniversary on the grounds that he was associated with Operation Bluestar has been termed as “unfortunate and inappropriate” by the retired service fraternity as well as political figures. The management of the gurdwara in Sector 7 Panchkula, did not allow the family of Lt General Ranjit Singh Dayal to hold a prayer meeting on its premises yesterday. The meeting was held at the departed soldier’s residence and langar organised at the officers’ institute at Chandimandir. Lt General Dayal was Chief of Staff, Western Command, when Operation Bluestar was launched. A decorated soldier who captured the strategic Haji Pir Pass in Jammu and Kashmir in 1965, for which he was awarded the Maha Vir Chakra, later served as GOC-in-C, Southern Command, and Governor of Puducherry. Describing the incident as unfortunate, Lt General Raj Kadyan, former Deputy Chief of Army Staff, said: “General Dayal was a highly respected soldier. To view a single action through the lens of religion is reducing not only his stature, but also that of the Army, which is the most secular organisation in the country.” Maj-Gen Satbir Singh of the Indian Ex-servicemen’s Movement said the action on the part of the gurdwara management was inappropriate as Lt General Dayal was only performing his duty to the nation. Brig Harwant Singh said: “General Dayal was only doing his duty and it was totally wrong on the part of the gurdwara management to act in the way they did. The gurdwara action seems to be sectarian and anti-national.” Daljit Cheema, SAD spokesperson, said he had not heard about the incident and General Dayal’s family alone could comment on the matter. Leader of the Opposition in the assembly, Sunil Jakhar, said General Dayal was a brave soldier and a gentleman who deserved respect of the nation, especially Punjabis.
  9. This Dusht helped commit a genocide against his own people. We truly are slaves in India if we have to commemorate the disgraceful life of such scum in our Gurdwaras. What next ?.......an akhand paath in memory of Aurangzeb, Mir Manu, Indira Gandhi ? Akal Takhat Sahib and SGPC need to speak up now !!!
  10. Absolutely. If one of us behaves badly then it affects the reputation of ALL of us. That is what being part of a brotherhood means. We should always be cautious never to stain the pure, white chaddar of Guru Sahibaan. We shouldn't even have to discuss whether a 'Singh' on a dating show is right or wrong..........it should go without saying.
  11. Well done to Jay Singh-Sohal; he makes a lot of good points that needed to be said. Param, again contradicts himself by talking about 'representing himself' and then 'Sikhs need to be represented in the media'. Jay is well-spoken and cuts Param's arguments down so easily. Param comes off as confused, very immature, an attention seeker and really desperate to get famous. Thinks that people giving him high-fives and hugs is "giving him love"....he really doesn't understand that people are laughing at him and see him as a clown who entertained them on a Saturday evening.
  12. Gurdial Singh and sons in Jallandhar. They are of the same quality as Raj Musicals but not as expensive. Search the forum, there was a poster who was going to India to get a dilruba from them through Dr Gurnam Singh.
  13. He claims he is not representing Sikhs but then says it is good for Sikhs to get in the media.....a complete contradiction. Unfortunately the 7 million people who watched the program will think it is acceptable for Sikhs to date......which it is definitely not. Guru Sahib has taught us to look on other woman as our mothers, sisters and daughters. Sikhs used to have a reputation for high morals and character but now we have Amritdharis going on national TV destroying the good name that our forefathers built up. Sikhs need to get in the media, but with their respect, integrity and Sikh values intact......something that was clearly missing last Saturday.
  14. Here's the discussion on Nihal's program (Are turbaned Sikh men discriminated against when it comes to dating and marriage ?): http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01phm9y The be-sharam himself calls in and tries to defend his actions (backed by the Anti-Sikh Jasminder).
  15. Here is a better quality video of the complete embarrassment that happened last night (go to 16:47): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FGdQNTfDMCQ
  16. We need to put to bed these lies that attempt to defame Sikhs and justify the subsequent genocide against us. Below is a quote from 'Amritsar:Mrs Gandhi's Last Battle by Mark Tully and Satish Jacob (page 147)'. Now, we all know that this book is pro Indian government and anti-Sikh. It uses derogatory language against our martyrs and tries to make out like the whole thing was the fault of the Sikhs. But if there was, as is claimed, thousands of Hindus being killed, wouldn't the Indian government try to claim it ????? Even they admit that more Sikhs were killed than Hindus........so where is this phantom genocide that was being carried out against Hindus ??? "According to the government's figures, Bhindranwale's terrorists had already killed 165 Hindus and Nirankaris in the twenty-two months since the launching of the Akali Morcha. They had also killed 39 Sikhs because they had opposed Bhindranwale. The total number of deaths in violent incidents, including so-called 'encounters' between the police and Sikhs, riots, and the accident at the level crossing in which 34 supporters of the Morcha were killed, was 410. The injured numbered 1,180. " Amritsar:Mrs Gandhi's Last Battle by Mark Tully and Satish Jacob (page 147) The quote above clearly shows that even the Indian government claims that only 165 Hindus were killed in the two years of the morcha. Sikhs have always denied any involvement in these killings and we believe it was the Indian government carrying out these crimes and trying to discredit Sikhs. They was a well known incident where six Hindus were killed on a bus. Shaheed Sant Jarnail Singh Ji Bhindranwale and all the Sikh leaders strongly condemned this, but the right-wing Hindu press never reported this. Even Sant Longowal said on video "We have said to the government many times that they should set-up a committee to investigate these killings and we will prove that the government is behind these."
  17. Absolutely hit the nail on the head, bro. If our community could understand this we wouldn't be having these problems and Sikh families would be strong, making a strong community and strong nation. Our girls have become lawyers, doctors, managers.......how many mothers do we have who know how to bring up kids properly ? The day our girls become proper mothers, we won't have to ask others for raaj, it will come and fall at our feet. The most important thing is character and once this is lost everything is lost. In addition to avoiding secular values we need to stay away from feminism which our lot are trying to present as being part of Sikhi, which it is most definitely not. We are paying a heavy price for abandoning our old culture/values and adopting this modern day gutter culture where sharam, izzat, anakh have no value.
  18. Meeting Dr Gurnam Singh is an excellent idea, he will be able to guide you as they purchase a lot of instruments. I believe that he buys his instruments from Gurdial Singh and sons (Jallandhar,Punjab). These are definitely top quality dilrubas, one of the best. You could get Dr Gurnam Singh to order the dilruba for you, or maybe phone them and give a 'sifarash'. This is so that they take care with making the instrument, make it better quality and will be less likely to mess you around. Otherwise, some instrument makers don't take as much care. Here is a very good article: http://harsangeet.com/2008/05/wanttobuyesraj/ Whoever you buy it from make sure you tell them that you are taking it abroad and it should be packed accordingly. Also, be aware of time constraints as they will tell you it will be ready by the time you go back to UK, but on the day they will make an excuse. Tell them it should be ready as early as possible. If you are getting the dilruba for your son, you might also want to consider getting a mini dilruba rather than the full size one. You would have to get this specially made.
  19. Here is a shabad in Raag Kalyan by Bhai Harjinder Singh Ji. This was done at the 1991 Gurmat Sangeet Sammellan. http://www.jawadditaksal.org/31Raags/057_Kalyaan_Gun%20Naad%20Dhun%20Anand%20Beid_Bh%20Harjinder%20Singh%20Ji%20Srinagar%20Wale.mp3
  20. Make sure that you print the letter and 'list of the prohibited items' on this thread and take them with you. If you get hassle then ask to speak to their superiors and also make sure that you take names. By refusing you entry on the basis of the kirpan they are breaking the promise they have made with the Sikh community and should be taken to court.
  21. Singhs going to Coventry for football are still being denied entry when wearing kirpans. Wimbledon and Excel arena are OK (haven't heard anything about the others).
  22. Thanks. Any Amritdharis going to the Olympics should print this out in case they get funny at the check points.
  23. Here is a list of the prohibited items at London 2012: http://www.london2012.com/mm/Document/Documents/General/01/25/44/06/Prohibitedandrestricteditemslists_Neutral.pdf "All types of knives and bladed items, including pocket knives and knives carried as part of cultural dress (excluding the Sikh article of faith kirpan/ceremonial dagger)"
  24. You sound like a kid who has just discovered the nuances of the English language and is just experimenting. Any mature person would understand that what I said was a prediction/opinion based on what has happened in the past and what is happening now (as I said before and has been explained to you by singher23, but you keep repeating the same things). Is it a fact ?.....of course not, because it has NOT happened and is therefore not verifiable !!! Why are you arguing about something so obvious ? But, I think you probably know this as you use language the same way (ie. "having SS there on the byline is going to be a positive step for the welfare of the Panth"........."I am sure that we will see results in favour of the Panth"). Maybe the real reason for your posts is you are frustrated that every day we see the news from Punjab which shows the direction things are going......Punjab government killing our youth and not punishing the guilty, sticking up for SS Saini in the High Court, saying that there will be no pictures in the 1984 memorial. And, inspite of this you are trying to convince us that everything is OK and that Sikhs should stick with Badal. Incredible !!! Time is something that we do NOT have......it has been 28 years. The waters of Punjab are getting dirtier, the demographics are changing fast. Sikhi is finishing in Punjab.
