  1. Not entirely sure, but the Indian variant is in the UK now but from what I've heard the vaccine should tackle it.
  2. This Gurdwara is doing amazing work. How can you send money ?
  3. Will we have another wave in the UK? When is this gnna end!
  4. Unfortunately there is a demand for these pandits, that is why they exist in Asian areas, they are flourishing. And as expected they are taking advantage of Covid. Was he sitting in lift or a crane? Something like that?
  5. Respect to the people that are working hard and looking out for everyone in the community ? Pandit ji is charging £500 for 200 lemons !!!
  6. Girl is tied up and gang-raped after being lured with the promise of a coronavirus vaccine in India Two men met victim at a health centre in Covid-ravaged city of Patna, Bihar state Convinced victim they could provide vaccine, taking her to abandoned house She told police she was tied up and gagged as the men took turns raping her The suspects' houses were raided on Wednesday and they remain in custody https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9525701/Girl-tied-gang-raped-lured-promise-coronavirus-vaccine-India.html
  7. Indians voted Modi for Ram Mandir and Cow safety, and that is exactly what they got! cow safety and ram mandir, not sure why they're so confused now! development of the healthcare sector was never mentioned in the BJP rallies. You get what you vote for, which in this case was a mandir and cow safety.
  8. American army is leaving Afghanistan.
  9. I read somewhere that India uses around 1% of its GDP on healthcare! I've been to those small hospitals in Punjab and they are absolutely filthy! filth everywhere, flies hovering around everywhere, sinks covered in brown stuff, litter everywhere, Its appalling. The ladies cleaning the floor with mops, just use the same dirty mops. The bigger ones are better though.
  10. was watching this last night. They're an independent channel. Its the biggest cremation ground in kanpur, Up, and people have been waiting since 2 in the afternoon to get their relatives cremated. A lot of anger in the people, not happy with the government. There's a Sikh family @13:30 feel so sorry for them. ? Bodies are just left on the floor! no dignity what so ever. Family members are having to drag the wood themselves, while the guys working there are keep on asking for money! No humanity or dignity at all. The guys at the office are lying about the numbers of bodied that have been cremated. .
  11. That's Ali's sword, a Mughal emperor gave it to Guru Gobind Singh ji. Apparently there is a Mughal source documenting the Mughals gifting the sword to Guru Ji. Has anyone come across the source ?
  12. You can still watch it, click on it. White man created AIDS in a lab and then spread it in Africa and then blamed Black people and made stories up about bestiality etc Years ago I watched this really good old documentary about AIDS on youtube, it was around an hour long, but as usual youtube took it down.
  13. Who said that, Jemimah Khan ? There seems to be a fetish for trans women in Pakistan and Afghanistan! And then at the same time they push gay men of buildings! very hypocritical country.
  14. This man hasn't got a religious bone in his body, he's just saying it for the votes. The clergy in his country have a lot of power and influence in voting, so he needs to keep them on his side.
  15. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9516043/Pakistan-PM-boasts-plan-Muslim-countries-force-blasphemy-laws-West-work.html
  16. Kumb mela is still on! it continued today.
  17. Was watching a documentary about Irish gypsies/travelers and some of them were wearing Rolex watches, proper thick gold chains around their necks and living in huge houses! when their grandfathers probably lived in caravans! while their ancestors were probably hunted down and executed! our identity/status shifts every couple of generations. funny little thing it is.
  18. I saw a similar book online but it had photos as well. It described the various different tribes, castes, clans, religious sects of South asia, one tribe on each page and a photo of a person on the other page. I didn't read it tbh! just looked through it because I liked the photos. There was a page about Sodhi Sikhs and on the next page there was a photo of a old Sodhi from Lahore wearing some very interesting looking glasses! Similar to what you said, it was interesting because it described either Sidhu or Sandhu Sikhs, and how they have assimilated in Jatt Sikhs. Which suggests that at one point Sidhus or Sandhus were a separate tribe all together. I think when people started considering udasis, Sindhi Hindus, nirmalas etc as non-Sikhs that really decreased the number of Sikhs. I read an article about Rajput Sikhs and it said that Rajput Sikhs continued practicing Rajput traditions and had a unique identity but many of them later assimilated into Jat Sikhs. According to his descendant on a youtube video, Maharaja Ranjit Singh was a Bhatti Jat, and that the tribe is of Rajput ancestry. They settled in the pind Raja Sansi and many of them adopted the pinds name as their surname, something like that! I don't remember the whole thing. But this kind of stuff happened a lot back in those days. I think as people changed professions, moved from rural to urban areas, or urban to rural areas, status changed and people assimilated into different communities. Sodhis are of Khatri origin, but most Sodhis today are Jatts. My family are Sodhi too. But during the Sikh empire Sodhis were considered separate from all other castes, they were considered like a priestly class, elite Sodhis even received money from the empire for no reason! It was the same with the Bedis as well, they were considered a priestly class. But its good all this bs ended! It was verging on Brahminism. A lot of Bedis and Sodhis became corrupt because of all this. So basically people have been changing identities for a very long time, its still happening tbh ... For a lot of Sikhs, go back a few generations and your forefathers are likely to be very different people!
  19. Yeah unfortunately most Gurdware these days are ultra leftist. When someone from another faith comes to a Gurdwara seeking spiritual guidance (many do) then it is the granthis duty to give them naam! If someone from another faith has come to a Gurdwara for spiritual guidance, then that's because their soul has pulled them there, it is what their soul wants. But what do the granthis do? they tell them to go away and continue reading gaytri mantra or continue reciting the Quran! That is very unjust of them! Their soul is craving more, that is why they find themselves drawn towards Sikhi. Its unfortunate Sikhs fail to give naam and Sikhi to non-Sikhs that come looking for it. Whenever non-Sikhs came to the Gurus for spiritual guidance, our Gurus gave them naam and Sikhi.
  20. The Vedas have got a a lot of things right. I remember reading 9 paragraphs from the Vedas, each paragraph describing the different stages of the embryo. And then the Vedas describe the earth as a disc!
