Yeah, but emotional extravagance can also be harmful and demoralising. We have longstanding and strong traditions of stoicism. -

I'm in Punjab right now, the atmosphere is fine, please don't be nervous. As long as your not talking about panthic stuff, I think you will be fine -

As a Keshdhari Sikh it would be better to go to Amritsar given the current political climate. The OP clearly takes his safely seriously and Amritsar would be the safer option, not to mention Delhi has lots of Haryanvi and UP goondas. -
There's also plenty of historical sites to explore in southern portion of Punjab, outside of mainstream Amritsar if you venture into those regions. Sirhind, Fategarh Sahib and Ropar Ucha Pind Sanghol, thousands of years old - east Punjab's Harrapan heritage, ancient Bhuddist stupa's, Gandharan art aam-khaas baagh complex Bhora Sahib (only surviving Gurdwara portion with original architecture) Sultanate era buildings with great stonework Ludhiana Ghanta Ghar Really nice and cheap museums (social history & rural life, Maharaja Ranjit Singh war museum various Ludhiana forts.

Amritsar airport to Moga is definitely more than 2 hours. It takes a lot longer usually than what's written on Google. Delhi to Punjab can be quite good depending on the route the car takes, some routes have better roads and are quicker. You won't feel tired if you stop along the way as well. Moga people and generally all southern districts all speak Punjabi, even the local Hindus. Only ones who won't might be Bihari labourers in cities. People in southern Punjab districts wear more Kurta Pyjamas than other districts, especially if you wear a white one, you'll blend right in.
