I need to know the number of recorded sikh bullying and hate crime victims in the UK for some research I am currently doing. Does anyone know where I can find these statistics?

WaheGuru I would say start with the police, then Sikh organisations such as BSF, SAS etc. Ask Hamrmandar Singh as well from Sikhs In England. He has lots of contacts and should be able to help. The other person that comes to mind is Balvinder Kaur Saund. Your local Labour MP. All god starting points. Hope this helps.

You could use a Freedom of Information Act request for stats from the police, though I'm not sure if they would record the religious affiliation of the victim in every case?

These things are massively under-reported in any case so the stats won't be very accurate.

Don't ask the police for nothing fella. They'll give you hate crime stats but those stats are meaningless. Firstly, because of home office recording standards, the forces will go out of their way of filing what could be hate crimes under something else. The reason for that is money and resources. Overall, only 33% of actual crimes get an actual police deployment. Thats because they don't have enough money for full deployment. Put something down under the home office code for 'hate crime' and they MUST, by public policy, make deployment. If its possible therefore to justify it not being a hate crime they will.

Secondly......even when you get to those very dodgy meaningless hate crime stats....you're only gonna be able to narrow it down to the IC4 (asian) category. The police, for their stats, are very lazy in this country. They'll put Arabs down as IC4 and they'll put Persians down as arabs. The whole things meaningless.

You want stats in the future ?.....Then you've gotta put pressure on the Home Office to a specific hate crime criminal code for 'hate crime against sikhs'. Untill that happens....and report you compile from any stats you gather from the police are gonna be worthless.

      Concept of Sin

      By BhForce · Posted

      I agree we're not born with sin like the Christians think. Also I agree we have effects of karma. But Gurbani does state that the body contains both sin and charity (goodness): ਕਾਇਆ ਅੰਦਰਿ ਪਾਪੁ ਪੁੰਨੁ ਦੁਇ ਭਾਈ ॥ Within the body are the two brothers sin and virtue. p126 Actually, we do need to be saved. Gurbani calls this "udhaar" (uplift). Without Satguru, souls are liable to spiritual death: ਜਿਨਾ ਸਤਿਗੁਰੁ ਪੁਰਖੁ ਨ ਭੇਟਿਓ ਸੇ ਭਾਗਹੀਣ ਵਸਿ ਕਾਲ ॥ p40 Those who have not met Satguru Purakh are unfortunate and liable to death. So, yeah, we do need to be saved, and Guru ji does the saving. The reason Satguru is the one to save is because God has given Satguru the "key" (kunji): ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਹਥਿ ਕੁੰਜੀ ਹੋਰਤੁ ਦਰੁ ਖੁਲੈ ਨਾਹੀ ਗੁਰੁ ਪੂਰੈ ਭਾਗਿ ਮਿਲਾਵਣਿਆ ॥੭॥ In the True Guru's hand is the key. None else can open the door. By perfect good fortune the Guru is met. p124

      Fake Baba

      By BhForce · Posted

      That's unfortunate to hear. Could you give any more information? Who was this "baba"? He just disappeared with people's money? Obviously, you should donate your money to known institutions or poor people that you can verify the need of through friends and family in Punjab.

      Fake Baba

      By Singh1989 · Posted

      Sangat ji,  I know a family who went Sevewal to do seva sometimes end of 2019. They returned last year in great dismay and heart broken.  To repent for their mistakes they approached panj pyaare. The Panj gave them their punishment / order to how t make it up which, with Kirpa, they fulfilled.  They were listening to a fake Baba who, in the end, took all the "Donations " and fled sometime over a year ago. For nearly 4 years this family (who are great Gursikhs once u get to know them) wasted time and effort for this fake Baba. NOT ONLY this one fam. But many, many did worldwide and they took their fam to do seva, in village Sevewal, city Jaitho in Punjab. In the end many families lost money in thousands being behind this Baba. The family, on return, had to get in touch with all the participants and told them to stop.  I am stating this here to create awareness and we need to learn from whom we follow and believe. It's no easy but if we follow the 3 S (Sangat, Simran and Seva) we will be shown the light. As I am writing this the family in question have been doing the same since 2008 onwards and they fell for this Baba... it is unbelievable and shocking.  This am writing in a nutshell as am at work on my break so not lengthy but it deserves a great length.  Especially the family in question, who shed light on youngsters about Sikhi 20 plus years!!

      Is suraj parkash right? is it a reliable source of info?

      By BhForce · Posted

      Leaving aside Guru ji, the general question of taking afeem (opium) in limited quantities for war/medical wounds is simply unproblematic. When you go to the hospital, they give you morphine. What do you think morphine is? It's an opiate. Even codeine (cough syrup) is an opiate! Ever had a cough? Granted, it is against Gurmat to take opium or other drugs for the fun of it.
