Don't click on it then. Half of the discussions on this forum stem from controversial social media "garbage".

Disgusting! There was a viral video of a Muslim man spitting into plate of rice and then mixing it with rest of the rice in a cooking pot in Kerala (south India) too. Hindus were talking about this incident.

Wow, shame on you for saying you have played with a lot of women in your jawani. Yet you say there are Punjabi women who are slags and bimbos. How about you look in the mirror first. If you want Punjabi women to stay pure you should also be pure yourself instead of tarnishing their image online. Of course you are single, you are really bitter. Try to have some empathy btw. The Dutch guy said he admires I’ve never been in a relationship before and that he wants to help me go to uni in the Netherlands and help me be successful. Maybe you should practice kindness to women in your life then you can find a loyal one. If you can still apparently get it up then you should find a good bibi in her 30s to get married to. But you won’t because you’re bitter.
I think this forum is heavily dominated by old or middle aged males who put down Sikh women every chance they get.

One of the rioters Mohammed Shahrukh in the recent Delhi riots - famously captured aiming a gun at the police - had a Sikh father and Muslim women. Guess what? The father converted and the child was raised a Muslim.That's why Sikhs should be marrying other Sikhs regardless of their gender.

Sikh man alleges Muslim wife, in-laws forcing him to convert, moves court
Chandigarh, Jul 15 (PTI) A Chandigarh-based Sikh man has filed a civil suit in a local court here, seeking directions for restraining his wife and his in-laws from allegedly forcing him and his minor son to convert to Islam.
The court of Civil Judge (Junior Division) Rasveen Kaur on Wednesday issued notices to defendants on a complaint filed by the 36-year-old man and fixed July 20 as the next date of hearing.
In a civil suit filed through counsel Dixit Arora, the man said that he was Sikh by religion while his wife and his in-laws were Muslim.
The plaintiff through his counsel submitted that he met his would-be wife in 2008 in Chandigarh. He was working as a store in-charge of a jewellery store while the woman was working as a sales girl at the same store.
After they became friends, the woman proposed marriage. He initially refused the proposal as he belonged to a different religion while she was a Muslim.
But after she assured him that she would never create any hurdle in his religious feelings and values, they solemnised the marriage according to Sikh rituals in 2008 at Amritsar.
The plaintiff alleged that from the day one of their marriage, his wife and his in-laws started forcing him to profess Islam.
When his in-laws continued to force him to profess Islam, he decided to stay away from them and shifted to Delhi where he stayed for four years from 2008 till 2011.He later shifted to Amritsar where he stayed for four years.
In 2012, his wife gave birth to a boy. His in-laws started trying their best to convert their child to Islam, he alleged.
On the persistent request of his wife, he shifted to Chandigarh in 2016. Since then, there had been active interference of his in-laws in his matrimonial life, he alleged.
He further alleged that his in-laws used to instigate his wife to enter into heated arguments with him as he was not ready to convert to Islam. He further accused his in-laws of insulting him numerous times.

His voice in the first video is far better than most Punjabi singers we have today.

Sikh numbers need to be high in Punjab, the percentage there is decreasing day by day. The percentage of Sikh population in Punjab has registered a decline from 59.9% to 57.69% (even though the total population of the community has gone up).
Sikhs will soon lose majority status in Punjab too, which is the only Sikh-majority place in the world.

Kazakhstan officer beheaded, protesters killed as government offices are targeted amid unrest
Posted 12h ago, updated 1h agoDozens of protesters have been killed in Kazakhstan in attacks on government buildings and at least a dozen police officers have died, including one who was found beheaded.Key points:
- Russian paratroopers have been sent in to help quell the unrest
- Security forces said dozens of protesters were "liquidated"
- Protests have spread into broader anti-government riots because of resentment over 30 years of single-party rule
There were attempts to storm buildings overnight in the country's largest city, Almaty, and "dozens of attackers were liquidated," police spokeswoman Saltanat Azirbek said on state news channel Khabar-24.
The reported attempts to storm the buildings came after widespread unrest in the city on Wednesday, including the seizure of the mayor's building, which was set on fire.
Russia's TASS news agency quoted the Kazakh health ministry as saying more than 1,000 people had been injured during the protests, and more than 400 of them were in hospital.
Khabar-24 cited the city commandant's office as saying on Thursday that another 353 law enforcement officers were injured in addition to the 12 killed.
Kazakhstan is experiencing the worst street protests the country has seen since gaining independence three decades ago.
Protests over a sharp rise in prices for liquefied petroleum gas began on Sunday in the country's west before intensifying and spreading to Almaty and the capital Nur-Sultan.
On Wednesday, President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev vowed to take harsh measures to quell the unrest and declared a two-week state of emergency for the whole country.
The government resigned in response to the violence.

I know for a lot of people from the 80s generation; they would be warned not to get too into Sikhi, anyone who was wearing a pagh or even a Kara would get picked up and be missing forever.
A lot of people from this generation find Sikhi discussion "boring" and prefer to gossip instead.
They tend to be more materialistic than the grandparents generation and pass on the "watered down" version of Sikhi to the children which led to the present generation.

Yes, we've overall become more panthic over the past few years. Our community was a lost cause in the 2000s. The divide between pappu Sikhs and panthic Sikhs will become wider in the coming years. People used to criticize me for speaking out against Ravi Singh Khalsa Aid helping mostly non Sikhs saying we're all about sarbat da bhala, but today many are doing it. More and more Sikhs are aware during the Christmas period about the Chotay Sahibzaday and so on. The Dhadli thing is true but then again for every one Dhadli you have a thousand hoes on insta, tiktok and snapchat so things need to be adressed from within our homes. Sikh parents need to start focusing more on anakh, honor and a panthic mindset than just getting a western education and 'sarbat da bhala'. Also an emphasis on Sikhs marrying only Sikhs.
I agree, we're becoming more panthic.

On 1/7/2022 at 3:31 AM, proactive said:I think Puadh is a British era concept, Punjab south of the Satluj was always Malwa down to where it borders Bangar Desh to the south (Hissar-Hansi-Jind) and Bhattiana (Sirsa -Hanumangarh in Rajasthan) to the south west. Malwa's borders were less defined towards Ambala - Kaithal.
No, Puadh region isn’t just a British concept. Puadhi dialect is different from other dialects. There are also cultural differences between people of Malwa and people of Puadh.
Language, culture and people
Bhupinder Matauria, a retired government officer, writer and lyricist, who has written a book titled ‘Puadh ke Gharatan ka Atta’, said: “Our language and culture is different from Malwa
“To protect our distinct identity, we have started the ‘International Puadhi Manch’ to promote Puadhi culture. We raised Puadh region issues from various stages, that it should be given due respect like the three other regions of the state in government records and even on the Punjab map formally, but these politicians are responsible for not promoting Puadh. Now we are hopeful as the new CM is from Puadh,” he said.
“Puadh has been a very green area since the beginning and there were a lot of mango orchards here. People used to grow wheat and sugarcane here and a lot of trade used to take place between Malwa and Puadh.”
“Our language is Punjabi but there are several Hindi words used in it which makes Puadhi language (Punjabi) different from the Punjabi language of the three regions of the state. While we are considered as part of Malwa, we prefer to wear ‘kurta and pajama’ while in Malwa’s rural belt, mostly chadara (sheet-type cloth) is wrapped and their style of wearing ‘turla style’ turban (in old Punjab) was very different from the turban style in Puadh,” said Jasbir Singh Shantpuri, a resident of Shatpuri village in Puadh area of Ropar.
People of the Puadh area have their own rituals which are different from Malwa. Because of the lack of proper representation from here, this area could not be popularised like the other three regions, said Dr Virk.

Most Desi films are based on star power rather than any storyline.
I think one thing the Panjabi industry does right is including main actors with turbans (I know they cut their beards). I knew girls who weren't into men with turbans but started being much more open when they saw Ammy Virk, Tarsem Jassar and Diljit Dosanjh take over Punjabi screens.

Another approach could be to have really good panjabi media. Many girls even Sikh girls are able to understand Korean from watching Korean dramas.
I knew a Sikh who started learning how to write Korean due to interest in their music and drama industry.
Television has the ability to influence people in good and bad ways. Panjabi entertainment industry needs to start producing good content that's relatable to Sikhs around the world (not just ones in Panjab).

we also need to find out why our women are so gullible? Parents are weak and dont tell their daughters to set boundaries? i have been always close with my mom and always tell her about everything. Could it be these kids are not close to their parents and cannot discuss things freely with them and are scared of repercussions.
Some kids in general have the tendency to "rebel". Some parents can be way too strict to the point where the kids don't feel comfortable sharing anything with them.
So when they get into something dangerous (like grooming), they feel scared to tell their parents in fear of punishment.
One thing that's desperately needed is Parchar in "Sikh" homes. Many Sikhs don't know anything about Sikhi apart from love all humanity, all you need is a good heart and occasional visits to the Gurdwara. So a very liberalised and simplified viewed which they use to justify their bad habits. This can make the kids confused about their religion as well. I've heard of a parent who didn't tell his daughter about Sikhi thinking it would mess up her ability to understand science at school!

I think a lot of the new arrivals and the ones I've seen in Italy (on TV) don't seem to care much for 'bhangra' (maybe non bhangra Panjabi music though) - they also seem to be into Sikhi and attend Gurdware often (don't know if that's mainly for Langar)
By casually racist, I mean they would say something offensive and not think much of it. Not jokey like your above example.
Saw this docu on Australia and the Lebanese immigrants where they made it look one-sided against the Aussies
https://www.aljazeera.com/program/featured-documentaries/2015/2/23/once-upon-a-time-in-punchbowl
Btw , which city are you in/close to ? Melbourne was a 'non-penal' city, I think, compared to the other major ones, so wonder if less racism there?
@Kaurr, what do you think of racism in Aus ?
The riots were definitely not one sided. We were taught both sides had fault, they had tensions with each other which eventually broke out into a big riot.

I never even heard of this untill i learnt about it online, and i think Khatris are the only Sikh group that intermarry hindus and does that no meat on tuesday thing. I dont think any kharkus were khatri either majority were Jatts and founder of khalistan movement were Jatt and Rajpoot Sikh.
Intermarrying with Hindus is more accepted among Khatri Sikhs than other Sikhs. I know a Khatri Sikh family with both urban and rural roots, they marry Hindus and their elders are alright with it too.
